Lets close the border and we can worry about that when it comes. It will not be a problem and the doom and gloom that is trying to be portrayed is one of desperation.

Hypothetical question...Trump seals down the border AND deports all undocumented workers tomorrow....where does the labor come from to replace these workers? Nobody has even been discussing deportations. Are you half fuckin goofy or what...? 2 hours ago, SVT Renegade XRS said: You just answered your question. There's still LOTS of people on UE that "can't find work". Gov't standards have pushed to raise vehicle costs also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it any different than what those construction companies do now? Their employers pay the max rate and that gets passed on to customers.

Around here everyone is on the same path they have been. 3 to 5% pay raises, same bonuses (some even less), a little savings in taxes for some. Home valued are about the same, the market is about the same, trucks are super expensive, cars about the same. So please, what’s happened in your neck of the woods to make things so grand. And spare the “well the wife got a bonus for the first time ever “ line of crap well I can tell you this I can't find workers and I am over dubbel what I was 2 yrs ago on bids and still people are begging us to put them on the scedual . rents are way up I love it when some one moves I am getting some times 350 more a month . call it consumer confidence I guess. oh and most guys I know we're forced to stuff even more in to the ira thus year to yeah all the,wining really sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
