Many moons ago in my youth I spent a few summers working in


construction. Decent paying jobs for people with just a High School Diploma could be found in construction for those with Carpentry, Brick Mason, and Plumbing skills. In the 80's those jobs began to transition to Hispanic people who now dominate much of construction. I would like to think that those they displaced found other work...but I'm not so sure that is the case.
