Everyone paying tens of thousands a year to send their kid to a university to get some bs degree, or that let their kid sit on a couch every summer instead of getting a job, or bought and paid for anything and everything their kid asked for only has themselves to blame. Also, majority of people complaining about poor craftsmanship, or poor work ethic, are the same ones that get offended by a “construction “ worker making near what they do.
The thing that is missing in construction now is the pride of giving a hard days work and turning out a quality product. That has been replaced by a head count, volume day. There should be no shame in working construction. It had kept the lights on at my house for 30 plus years. But the wages are so depressed that there is no incentive to get in construction. The American taxpayers are subsidizing the illegal alien work force that are being paid untaxed under a federal tax ID loophole. They can draw max food stamps for every child they have born here as they are citizens. A young American can’t compete with the corruption.
