to gain a little perspective let me say this. my dad runs his own pool building service in southern LA county. yes he does use mexican workers (language isnt a problem since we are ourselves mexican) yes many of the workers are illegal but he keeps hiring the same ones because he teaches them his trade. he's hired i dont know how many by now but they always leave in a better position than before he hired. most of them have bought houses and gone to work in other pool comapnies. it isnt that hard. these arent bad people. they dont look to be a leech but find a livlihood.
