You're right...I'm a boring jerk...But just to people that are anti-American and anti America...
.... oh, ... you're from Michigan. You have no concept of market forces.
Furthernore, you are ignorant. A boor DOES NOT mean you're boring. It means you're a boor:
1. A person with rude, clumsy manners and little refinement.
2. A peasant.
Well having said that, I'll 'fess up. 12 years ago our sewer pipe collapsed under the patio slab. Former husband picked up a couple of guys(presumably illegal-maybe not), rented a jackhammer and put them to work breaking concrete. I was ready to go to the hospital for labor induction, and there was sewage coming up into the bathtub, toilet, etc.
Keep in mind that I'm a life long CA resident, and until I was educated as to the true cost of hiring someone illegal, I really didn't have a problem. Now I do.
Go ahead and flame.
