“Labor shortages” = ILLEGALS GONE!
⚠️94% contractors have been using illegal labor ⚠️
When they low-ball the entire Community. The wages drop. The earnings drop. And the money heads over the border. The Billions India pulling out of the Western Nations. While their garbage builds up.
Check out the home inspection videos on yt
It’s atrocious how bad the quality
Ive already seen enough damage by them in a very short period in Canada. We all want them gone asap.
How else are people going to be able to get 6,000 square foot McMansions for $300,000?
Groceries and gasoline and electric are out of hand.
I think the majority of people left here are retirees or foreigners because they seem either wholly unawares or unaffected.
Completely detached from reality of the average working American
Heck, the person who posted this lives off the govt as a disabled vet.
Figures
I have no problem with our veterans being compensated.
They deserve an increase even.
I'm one of those working Americans, and there is nothing detached about. Prices have completely stabilized since Trump came back. My grocery prices haven't changed in since November 2024.
Also trades have always had shortages and right now it's the best time to get one. Gen Z buddy of mine is in the electrician school as we speak. He can't wait to ditch the dog eat dog rat race corporate world to have a regular and stable non toxic job.
If Caleb Hammer showed me one thing, it's that your average American doesn't have a income problem, but a budgeting one.
Edit: looking through your posting history, it's nothing but negativity and dooming. "Hurr durr, we lost the midterms" - no faggot, we didn't. Trump is still President. Reddit though is down the hallway to your right. So is patriots.win, but these they're basically the same.
I worked hard swinging a hammer and such my entire life, usually out in the cold and heat. I saved money. I live 5 miles from work. If gas doubles it doesn't really matter to me much that is very correct.
I've cut way back on fun hobbies to waste time trying to make american great again,and to straiten things out for the younger generations. So I believe I'm very aware of what's going on. I remember growing up,we never locked our front door,it was a different America
Ironically, it's the retirees that have been affected the most by this. That and people on SSI.
A lot of people have either gotten raises or improved their budgeting skills. It's not great, but it can always be worse. So I'm grateful for that.
7.25 for an 8oz brick of colbyjack cheese. The assistant manager was putting out dairy yesterday when I was in the store. I looked at the cheese prices and said woah I'm not paying those prices.
A good thing on many fronts... Better pay, faster track to starting work (In most trades) and less screwball teachers indoctrinating our youth.
...and not starting out adult life with debt from student loans that will take 20 years to pay off.
Democrats love slavery, debt slavery, SNAP slavery, etc...
"Democrats" love to enslave.
An electrician is a 5, year program. You're an apprentice for the whole time earning good money while you're being trained and if it's a union apprenticeship you get full union benefits day one. After about 8k hours of being an apprentice you test for your journeyman certification. In my area journeyman are making about 130k to start and adding in overtime add and other 20k. I've said all the Mc Manchins will have a pickup with a job box in the bed instead of the BMWs that are in the driveways now. Trades are the way.
Just wait until manufacturing catches up. Many factories are just being built and are not hiring the labor force right now. When they start up, jobs will be available to anyone that wants to work. We are in the beginning phase right now.
Well, looks like there are already plenty of jobs for anyone who wants to work, seeing as how there's a huge labor shortage already...
Plenty of jobs, not many paying what their employees are actually worth.
Most of it is unskilled labor, from what I understand. That's not necssarily going to bring in a lot of income.
So what is the solution? A mandatory living wage for them, like liberals want, which would cause prices of houses and such to skyrocket, or construction companies going under, or making it mandatory that people on government assistance to take those jobs? Or what other option, other than importing them right back in witn more work visas, just for them to not leave when the visa expires, and we start a very expensive cycle all over?
And didn't anyone see this when demanding to toss out illegals because American citizens need those jobs? That the jobs most of those illegals were doing were paying very low wages? What exactly do they think they were doing that was paying the high wages American citizens demand?
But why are there job shortages for these jobs? I thought one of the biggest complaints was that illegals were taking much needed jobs from American citizens.
So why are American citizens not taking these jobs if there's such a huge labor shortage?
And the thing that bothers me the most is that they're increasing H-2B visas for construction work, landscaping, hospitality work, etc. What sense does that make? Take all the time and money to boot them out of the country just to spend more time and money to import them back in.
And for the "But they're coming in legally!" people, the fact is the majority of illegals came over here legally to begin with, on H-2B visas, tourist visas, or student visas and just didn't leave when their visas expired. So expect these new workers coming over to do the exact same thing.
These stats are thrown at average Americans just scraping by. To be honest it’s fucking insulting.
Can you imagine a world where instead of employees being expendable, the employers are expendable?
That's right, the exact opposite of today's reality.
Wait until these cupcakes have to mix cement in full sun BY HAND in July in a big metal mortar box... the sudden glamour of "the trades" will be met by reality.
Get into the trades...you'll be working with hoes 😂😂😂
Seems like road work might be a good gig. I don't think they actually repair anything... Every time I go by a road crew around here, they're all just standing around doing nothing... it's amazing to me. Any job I've ever worked, there was zero standing around except lunch break... and that was to put my tool belt back on.
I think overall kids getting into some trade is good - if for nothing other than understanding how things work and how to fix things. It's pretty scary witnessing what 20 somethings don't know... like how to change oil or a tire, let alone running a new electric circuit or basic framing...
Let's go son...it ain't gonna dig itself!

Yesterday at the grocery store the cashier a teenager 15 maybe 16 stood at her register no light on sitting somehow on the bag stand with her cellphone, as soon as she was done bagging the few things I bought she sat right back down on her cellphone. I used to work at that store I would have been fired if I had done that.
Second quarter growth is being predicted to be 4.2%. And I am predicting 7% growth in the third quarter. The part that no one is directly talking about is the $2-3T investment money that is flowing into a $30T economy. Part of Trump’s $18T deal making. And typically, about one third of that ends up as federal tax revenue.
Love to see most of academia go under.
