Those are called "starter jobs." American younguns used to take a starter job in college, where they would learn stuff that enabled them to get a better job.

But now dishwashing and janitorial work are beneath them, so let's import a squajillion adults from other countries to do the work that our able-bodied teens are "too good to do."

Hey you stated it. That is what happened to our society. I started as a busboy and dishwasher when I was in high school, now it seems that high school kids would rather play with their playstation, although there are plenty of dishwashing jobs still out there.

I also mowed my families lawn, now a smart businessmen with an investment can do 15 lawns a day and make a nice living and do a better job in a half hour that I could do in 2 hours.

Is the man who started the lawn mowing business evil to you?

Not if he abides by the laws of the country and employs any American citizens he likes, nope. (We do our own yards here.)

Only if he doesn't have a drivers license, a business license, insurance, and doesn't pay taxes or SSI.
