It's also apparent that you have no interest in the law!
You get what you pay for. The sad thing is that the contractors are not passing along their savings to the consumer. They are sticking it in their pocket while the unsuspecting homebuyer thinks that they are getting quality work only to have problems down the road. We've already seen brick falling off of houses because of Mexicans not using wall ties.
"I have no interest in how they get it done for less only that it cost less.
It's also apparent that you have no interest in the law!"
It also appears he is a Greater Fool, being willing to buy substandard quality, just because it's cheap.
If I buy a house that's brand new I expect it to be fully compliant with all building codes. With the Mexican workers, this is not the case - and I don't want to suffer financial or physical harm because the contractor made more profit by using guys who can't understand nor read the code.
I expect the same for anything else I buy - tvs, cars, computers, food - I tend to avoid restaurants, as I have heard in my industry (foodservice), that getting the workers to follow basic hygeine - ie. washing their hands - is a HUGE problem right now.
I'm tired of corporate and private profit taking precedent over everything these days. I'm tired of my money going to greedy sleazebags who are helping destroy our nation and culture for a few dollars more - which is why more and more I'm NOT buying their products, no matter how cheap they are, and that includes services like phones and internet. I fired Earthlink for sending their tech support overseas, and I'm looking at replacing Citibank right now. I refuse to do business with PacBell. I will not buy HP. I do not have my car serviced at shops that have sullen, smirking illegals working in the back, been burned once by them, won't happen again. I find local mechanics who care, and pay the little extra. I'll clean my own damned car instead of paying a pack of illegal at a car washing joint who will just ransack your vehicle and then forget to speak English when you complain (BIG problem in our area). I don't buy fast food anyway, but if I did, i'd boycott them anyway, for hiring illegals who can't speak English. The sullen ghetto workers were bad enough, the ones who would be offended for you making them actually work, but the non-English and hygeine problems is just creepy.
It's a small act that ultimately will not topple the conglomerates, but I sleep better at night that I'm not paying greedy sleazebags for shoddy service, and propping up companies who hire illegals, or send work our citizens need overseas for a few dollars more.
