But are you willing to pay $100,000 more for a new home because labor for framing and drywall now pays $25-$30 per hour instead of $18-$22? All I'm saying is that I don't want to hear you or anyone else bitching about prices going up and blaming it on "greedy business owners
This MIGHT happen short term but eventually people will stop buying new homes with these inflated prices. Contractors can then decide to either make less money or start paying employees per job rather than hourly.

The question is, what happens when we don't do anything to remedy the issues with welfare

You're trying to interject some fantasy policy
So…you want to remedy welfare…. But when someone else brings it up is is a fantasy policy?
You are the only person in this world to be 100% right, 100% of the time.

It has everything to do with wanting lower than baseline labor costs.

Easy solution to all this. Temporary work permits, do some minor vetting and let them work 6-9 months. Make them play taxes, but not part of the social security or other public programs. Other countries do it this way.
100%
Also, offshore companies are doing this.
Sodexo, Amarite catoring staff.
Dont know how they get away with it. But those companies both have board of directors and are huge.

Most "genius" CEOs that have successfully "slashed costs" in everything from chain stores to resort golf hotels to delivery services have used the shell company subcontractors playbook.

Putting employees in another entity and then subcontracting them out to your operating entity has exactly zero to do with monetary policy. It’s about 90% for liability and 10% to minimize taxes. If money were cheap, companies would still do the same exact thing, just like they’ve been doing for about 25 or 30 years

Liberals have been crying for this forever.
Now we get to sit back and watch them all suddenly oppose it.

So what youre saying is they are minimizing risk and shedding costs due to some amazing, unknown forces that are destroying barriers to entry.
You might be on to something, maybe one day you'll find this amazing unknown force.

Simple solution:
Audit HR offices for I-9 forms.
Then take Out the trash

I wonder how many taxpayer funded construction projects have had 100% illegal crews? Probably a pretty high number if I had to guess. Meanwhile, young blacks and whites have been priced out of the construction industry due to the low wages offered to the illegals.

Taxes are taxes and liability is liability whether money is cheap or expensive. You tried another feigned intellectual post and got caught. Now start the name calling, most of which is incredibly ironic considering you’re an alone alcoholic living in a one bedroom apartment on the outskirts of society.
Your same song and dance

Yep. We blame the wrong people.
If your job can be done cheaper, thats the value of your job and you are overpaid.
We cant compete globally due to labor and regulatory costs, of course people will find reasonable solutions.

Yes. What actual policies have been proposed by actual politicians to fix it?
Until real reform materializes, it's a fantasy.
