The Mexican can do it for $800 because he is accustomed to abject poverty...
AND because he has NO COMPULSIONS WHATSOEVER about gaming the US system for additional subsidies.
After all, the d*mn gringo’s have had it too good for too long!
Yes, and unless the contractor takes advantage of all the govt. subsidies it is an uneven playing field. This gentlemen seemed not to want to game the system.

And because it’s tax free and like an American earning a $1000
plus he doesn’t have to pay car insurance and lives with 10 other relatives and only pays $100 rent a month. It gives him $700 to drink on...
And that's before you get the free schooling for your kids, food stamps, earned income tax credit, free medical care when you go to the ER, etc.
Add it all together and I bet the Mexicans are netting far more than Americans doing the same work.
