This means huge pay cuts for workers. You know most of this will start out at minimum wage, as it is now.
I’m for sure not willing to do any mind-numbing manual labor for $12.32/hr (Colorado minimum wage) management level yes. But no lower. Don’t think you want me turning a screwdriver or whatever, unless you want lots of rejects.
And no unions.
Don’t think most of the service-oriented workers fired/furloughed due to lockdowns will be willing to do blue-collar work. At the other end, yutes sure won’t do it.
Not a popular opinion, so we import workers from Mexico?
The USA of today is not the same USA in the early 1940’s and our wartime economy.
Half the country has an IQ less than 100. These people LIKE these kind of jobs.
