All of those have taken a major hit during the current recession.
And when is a “handy man” a six figure income. C’mon, you just threw that in there to fill out the list, didn’t ya?

Every one takes a major hit during a recession.

A handy man that charges $55 per hour can make over $100,000. A handy man that becomes a general contractor can make significantly more than $100,000. Can every handy man charge $55 per hour or become a general contractor? No. But in a free society every handy man has that opportunity.

Actually, I could make the list much larger. Since you appear to be so fond of manufacturing lets talk about car, aircraft and military sectors. All of these will be harmed by an increased price on steel caused by protectionism.
