Not sure what the reason is. Where I live, there are several adults who do full time lawn work. I see them often with their pickups and trailers loaded with lawn care equipment.

It is a cheap ‘cash’ business. All you need is a cheap trailer, lawn mower etc and be willing to WORK. Word of Mouth will get you going and when you become ‘in demand’ is when you can expand and grow your business.
The kids can thank ‘ELECTED OFFICIALS’ for the lack of work.
and most small businesses can’t afford the always rising minimum wage + what municipalities are throwing on top.
Should take about 6 months for the people who are living in the Maximum Minimum Wage ($15 or whatever) will start to realize that cup of coffee or 6 pack etc has been raised to accommodate the ‘minimum wage’.
Naturally the Pols never stop to think of the end - end results of their ‘good heartedness’.
BTW how many millions are the 4 Marines and 1 Sailor going to get from the FED because of the butthead in Tennessee?
They will be lucky to get wartime survivor benefits and I would imagine some would not want them buried in Arlington. (reserved for Combat Vets etc except for Cremation).
Of course to award Purple Hearts and give out all the Wartime Survivor Benefits would be to admit we are at ‘War’ right here on Home Soil.
I can only hope that BO is/was pulling a W and meeting/communicating with the survivors but he is far to egotistical and narcissistic to do any of that without wanting the ‘glory’ that goes with it.
With Brown, Trayvon, and the rest of the martyrs, he cares - I will even - sort of - go along with they were senseless killings BUT they were still THUGS before and during their assuming room temp.
If that clown that shot up the Church ‘for his cause’ would have went to any street corner and taken out a mob of drug sellers/users, he would have gotten the REAL publicity he was looking for. Even for the JJs and Sharptons of the world, it is hard to ‘butt in’ when the families tell you t go pitch your BS elsewhere....
Basically the ‘difference’ between Good and Bad people.
I suggested farm work to an idiot protesting for $15 per hour fast food workers and you would have thought I had suggested slavery.
It turned out that he didn’t want to work 50 or 60 hours per week and in fact didn’t want to work more than 20 hours per week because he wanted time to pursue “other interests” as he put it.
That's part of it, and I think that so many manufacturing jobs have been lost in many locales, that these adults now mowing lawns would have had manufacturing jobs twenty and more years ago.
Agree with your other remarks. Obama will have little to say about the Moslem jihadist who murdered the five servicemen in Chattonooga.
