I love that show. When I was 20 I had some jobs just like that.

It is a great show. I love Mike Rowe.

Doesn’t he show dirty jobs that “Americans” are willing to do?

What utter nonsense.

I work in the welfare bidness. In my California county, we have over 5000 heads of households that do not work and get cash welfare. Why can’t these adults do the work that “Americans won’t do”?

Why do we have illegals working as maids and janitors in Las Vegas hotels, while at the same time there are thousands of people on welfare in Nevada?

Why are there thousands of people on welfare in every state when these states are screaming for workers? Modern welfare, TANF (Temporary Aid to Needy Families) pays ALL childcare and transportation expenses so people have NO excuse not to work. There is no reason that these welfare clients can not go to work and do what jobs need to get done.

Where I work, we are FORBIDDEN to tell clients to look for a job out of our county. That would be “running the poor out of the county”, to quote our “leaders” here.

My county does everything it can to keep out employers like Walmart, Target, and others that provide lots of entry level, no-skill jobs. These jobs are “dead end” and therefore “unacceptable” to our “advocates”.

Earth to Bush: cut off cash welfare in America for able bodied people and you will have no problem finding people to do the jobs “Americans won’t do”.

I am so tired of this crap.
