In 1994 I was hired on a crew for $10/hr during Denver's housing boom. I had never swung a hammer before. The guys who had made a lot more than that.
At the time it was the most money I had ever been paid and there was as much work as I wanted.
In Texas, undocumented construction laborers make an average of $11.10 an hour, compared with $14.22 for those born in the U.S.
A perfect example of wage suppression created by hiring illegals. And yet we’re supposed to pay fast food workers $15 p/hr. Progressives are insane and hypocritical.
