Maybe we need a good old fashioned depression to bring this country into line again with what the value of a days work really is.

Not that I would know, I'm barely in my 30s.

Lawnwork is not to good for me, I do my own. I'd do the construction if I could and had the time - as it stands now I ask contractors if they hire illegals because I can't support that practice (ethics) and when they say yes I have to pass on them. Which basically means nothing gets done at my house.
