We can disagree on this. I still believe if the jobs paid enough no matter the task there would be citizens willing.
Now would the price of pork beef along with crab, vegetables lawn maintenance be higher? Yes it would be so cheap in for cheap out.
Pay $30+ an hour plus good benefits for anyone of them, then let us see what happens.
