I did this early 80s to mid 90s. About 98% of the framers were White. Both in Colorado and California. I started out at 9$ hour as an apprentice until I was making 6-7 times over minimum wage. And then you started to see a shift. All Mexican crews. All speaking Spanish. And it wasn\u2019t just framing. Pretty much everything in housing construction got taken over by Mexican cheap labor. And with it came shoddy work. I remember one job site where they had to tear down the frame of a 2 story house with a loft in the 2nd floor. Not one wall was plumb. It was amusing seeing the contractor in a tractor tearing it all down. That was several thousand dollars frame material. Who do you think ate it? It was about that time I started looking for work other than framing. Got a job as a Chemical Miller apprentice. I use to mill the domes on the external Space Shuttle tanks. After about 2 1\/2 years, there was a mass layoff. What to do? Since I grew up around Automobile and Tractor Mechanics, pre-computer\/sensor days, I went to the local college and took Automotive Electrical \u2013 Computer and Control classes. Then went and took all the ASE Tests and also got my Smog License.<\/h2>\n<h2>And then there was a local independent Automotive shop that hired nothing but Mexicans. Why pay them 25 to 40 dollars an hour when you can pay them minimum wage? It was nothing but a disaster.<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-47298 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/magaville.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2025-01-31-at-07-20-00-steve-soboroff-half-of-labor-force-for-rebuilding-l.a.-could-be-deported-by-trump.png?w=649\" sizes=\"(max-width: 649px) 100vw, 649px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magaville.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2025-01-31-at-07-20-00-steve-soboroff-half-of-labor-force-for-rebuilding-l.a.-could-be-deported-by-trump.png 649w, https:\/\/magaville.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2025-01-31-at-07-20-00-steve-soboroff-half-of-labor-force-for-rebuilding-l.a.-could-be-deported-by-trump.png?w=138 138w, https:\/\/magaville.wordpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2025-01-31-at-07-20-00-steve-soboroff-half-of-labor-force-for-rebuilding-l.a.-could-be-deported-by-trump.png?w=276 276w\" alt=\"\" width=\"649\" height=\"705\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><em>Los Angeles Chief Recovery Officer Steve Soboroff told Hollywood talent agents on Thursday that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2025\/01\/31\/steve-soboroff-half-of-labor-force-for-rebuilding-l-a-could-be-deported-by-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">half of the laborers necessary for construction work in rebuilding fire-damaged areas could be \u201cdeported\u201d by immigration enforcement.<\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Let that sink in.<\/h2>\n<h2>But they\u2019re doing jobs that White people won\u2019t do!
