[Mad Dawgg]

We used to bid government jobs (flooring Business) I saw the waste in the system and I told my family we either stop bidding them or I am out. Prevailing wages for untrained workers costing the taxpayer upwards of 30 Bucks an hour. Kickbacks and payoffs to Gub'ment money men and union goons. Overbilling by the GC that got the wink and a nod (and was rewarded with a nice fat roll of dough) by the Gub'ment job overseer.

It was sickening. It paid well but it felt wrong AND I was always worried that if the hammer came down it wouldn't be the Union Goons or the Gub'ment clowns to get hit. It would be us independents.

We quit over 10 years ago and you couldn't get me back in it at the point of a gun. Bastards everyone of them that engage in that crapola!

Good on ya. I think you would help your neighbors a lot by sharing your policy and your reasons for it with them.
