I am a union man, born and bred and I'll die a union man.

Be fair, Dave! Since you haven't posted this contractor's name, address and telephone number, how do you expect the marketplace to work? Once you and a few dozen others relate your experiences with this clown his business will simply evaporate. That's how it works, as any Libertarian or Randian Objectivist knows full well!

Same with..... oh, I dunno, pharmaceuticals. Once enough people die from taking a bad product, everyone will stop buying it and the manufacturer will take it off the market. Don't you know anything?
