Title: Workers (illegals protesting) Get Soaked by Pulte Homes!

this is the commentary on You Tube:

"The video shows Pulte representatives out of control—frustrated at workers demonstrating at construction sites within their developments. Pulte Homes then assaults them with high-pressure water from Pulte water trucks. As the housing market continues to sink in Florence and the rest of the metropolitan area, Pulte Homes dropped its good guy image when it came to the workers who build their homes.

Workers demanding justice from Pulte Homes' construction subcontractors were shocked when the well-know homebuilder began directing its water truck drivers to repeatedly douse workers with high-pressure water. Workers, with dripping clothes and soggy shoes, maintained their calm and continued their peaceful demonstration even as they counted up to 16 separate water assaults in one day. Israel Hernandez, a painter who worked on hundreds of Pulte/Del Webb homes in the Phoenix area, paused while wiping water from the video camera lens, remarking, "This wasn't what we meant when we ask for drinking water on the job site." (more) "

Workers demanding justice from Pulte Homes' construction subcontractors

immigrants from Mexico & central America (many illegal) dominate the work-for these sub-contractors builidng homes in Phoenix area. and they are well-paid. almost all get over $10/hour. Many get up to $20/hour. so I don't know what they're complaining about. the spanish language is absolutely dominant on those crews. the few Americans learn spanish. there is much persecution against the Americans in this work-force as a result of these things. and still they complain.

If you notice, the post on You Tube was by someone from the AFL CIO.. they're trying to get these illegals to unionize.. the AFL CIO is one of the groups that is pro amnestiy and for illegals right to work in this country.. they've sold out their own members..

IBEW has come out against amnesty. Not all unions are on-board with it. Each week that goes by turns another union against it.

Probably. Currently, electricians command pretty good wages and, like the medical industry (and to some extent now the tech industry and management nowadays) they do their own certifications within their industry. Its a lot like one of the old medieval trade guilds.

Its something anyone can learn to do with a little study and a little work. Introducing a few million freelancers will destroy what these guys have created over the years.
