I shudder to think what's going to happen when they can't get well-motivated immigrants to do the job.
Height wages for citizens to do some of the jobs, leave the other jobs not done, until robot technology catches up.

This will be patchy because I don't remember key details, but:
Down South, Georgia, Alabama, somewhere thereabouts, some bureaucrat, the governor maybe, did something to drive away the migrant labor who heretofore had harvested the peaches (?) Result: The crop rotted on the ground. Possibly because welfare paid better than migrant wages.

In Japan, there is a description for a certain type of job.
They are called 3K - which the English translation is
dirty
dangerous
demeaningWho takes those jobs? Immigrants.
I think there is a version like this all over the world.
In the US, it is the Spanish people
In Thailand, the Burmese
In Taiwan, mainly mainland Chinese

etcEver watch the old Mike Rowe series, Dirty Jobs? Lots of dirty and dangerous jobs out there. Some of them pay pretty well.
As for bricklayers, concrete finishers, roofers and the like, those are physically demanding jobs, but the money can be pretty good. I don't think you can compare those jobs to things like agriculture work.

It's coming back, btw.
I enjoy the series. Wonder if he'll still try to do the jobs?

I wonder if he'll try to do 'middle manager in an engineering firm'.
Actually, Mike Rowe is probably not the best choice for that, they'd be better off using Wayne Carr.

It's a bit of a trap, though. A buddy of mine is some kind of specialist window installer. Money's good but a hernia and subsequent surgery put him out of work for about 2 weeks. Problem is, it'll be hard for him to change professions.
Please love yourself.

The people I know who do this kind of work frequently seem to end up with physical issues. When you hit 50, it's not the same.

My niece married a guy who did that. He later started his own company in Florida and has done pretty durn well.

Yeah, I hear that's what a lot of guys do. It can work out really well, but I've heard that for every 1 person who made that leap, there are 3 or 4 who failed at it. Mostly it's because running a business requires an entirely different set of skills that you gotta develop an aptitude for, or you'll sink. Seems a lot of folks don't know that going in.
