Dude. Almost everyone I meet under a certain age these days is entitled. I don't think political affiliation has anything to do with it.


You have made a series of posts lately blasting this stereotypical nonsense about liberals being lazy and not wanting to work. It's garbage. Do you look at the welfare and poverty statistics in perennially red states? Stop with the machine gun spray finger pointing. You're better than that (when you're not acting like someone is on your lawn).


Get me a hundred of the most conservative unemployed people and get them a job as a field worker. If ten show up the next week, I'd be shocked. Like it or not, illegal immigrants fill a hole for some jobs.


You think its coincidence the majority of women in the Maid Brigade are not white? There's entitlement that some people feel they are better than some jobs. I see people with minimal skills wanting top dollar for average work and always asking for more.


If you don't have an education or a trade, you'd better wanna work. Sadly, too many parents just coddle their kids and let them leech off them til they are 30. Work ethic is a diminishing trait.


If you wanna make a case construction jobs are being taken.. I'm right there with you. Companies that get caught employing large groups of illegals should be punished.


However, I also happen to know a guy who heads one of the largest remodeling companies in town. You know what his biggest problem is? Getting reliable help. Half his crews have criminal records and can't get jobs elsewhere. And most have alcohol or substance abuse issues. This is construction, painting, drywall, tile, even electrical. He is always busy and always needs more help due to turnover. He doesn't employ illegals, but it's easy to see why many do.


Don't set this false ideal like the uneducated, minimally skilled workers of this country are all eager to do a great job and take pride in their work. It would be great if that was the case. It isn't.


It would be great if we invested in our people to get them the skills and training to work higher value, higher paying jobs. We don't. We groom lazy morons who think they are owed something just for showing up. It's not all cases, but a growing percentage of our workforce. Eventually you're going to have to admit these people are not all liberals.
