My opinion - Contractors are not hiring folks because they are “craftsmen” in their trade. They are hired because they are cheap. Hence the minorities. Are there Mexicans that are craftsmen and can do a great job? Sure, but that is not what the contractors are looking for because they can demand more money. The folks that are hired do not have to worry about providing a quality result. If the job goes south, the contractor will simply fire the guy and brag about how he “took care of it”. The guy that was fired will simply hire on to another crew down the street and continue with the same shoddy workmanship. No accountability.</blockquote>
