yup ,.. the tidal wave of illegals destroyed my livelihood

( unless , of course , I wanna play the game like other contrctors ,.. but when something goes horribly wrong on one of their jobsites , they’re either “hung-out-to-dry” or flee if they’re unmarried with no tangible assets )

I know a bunch of contractors, plumbers, electricians, etc. who have opted to work alone since they make far more than by hiring either cheap third worlders who screw things up or too expensive locals that wind up making more than they do, sign of the times.
