Mr. GG2 has had a general contractor’s license for 30 years and he still does some stuff partime but none of the American guys can competed with the illegals. Most people have just given up. Its totally different in NC. Here mostly they are illegal in the construction trades.
Lot of techies around Raleigh Durham....very little interest in labor jobs of any kind by black or white Americans. I guess they’re all in tech or on the government dole....in some 20 years, less than 5% of all applicants to my business were non Hispanic.....and we paid near the top of our industry, had cool uniforms for the crews, and we had tremendous retention.
