Stop and think how much 10 dollars an hour is.40 hours at 10 dollars an hour is about 400 dollars.After you take taxes out of it,maybe 300 take home times 52 weeks is around 15000 dollars a year.How would you like to live on 15000 dollars a year?Im real sure its better than nothing,but almost nobody except maybe a kid living at home with his parents is going to be able to stand it.Plus you wont be able to put up with somebody like that probably.Excuses,excuses and probably can get more done without him. Maybe you dont even make a lot more than that yourself,so how can you hire somebody?If you think about it,hiring help is expensive,way more expensive than it was,plus they arent paying you any more for your products,actually less with the manipulation of the stock market.Its way past time you all should have stood up.I dont know what you are going to do now,but either you will have to do it all yourself,or pay better. As time goes on,and it might be there now,Mexicans wont work for 10 dollars an hour if they can get a job paying better.10 dollars an hour is not enough money to get good help.You wouldnt work for it either,you couldnt if you had a family and neither can anybody else.Mexicans arent cheap either.They suck up all the countys money with Medicaid and food stamps and still wont work for nothing.Something has to give somewhere.The big shots get all of the money now.We are just slaves,and its getting worse.If farming is like everything else,soon your help will make mare than you do,and work half as much. So now when I start talikng about the Conservative crap,screwing Americans,this didnt happen over night.Ive been saying the same thing for years.Voting for the same crooks over and over,who give everything to rich people is whats wrong.I dont know what else to tell you.When I tried to have a mechanic shop in 1988 my help made more than me then.Its twice as bad now,plus some have to be a crook to survive.Its not the USA I grew up in.Plus if somebody paid them 10 cents an hour more,the help would quit and go there.You cant blame them. Double minimum age is about the right pay,so 14 or 15 an hour and you can probably get some fair help.Mexicans maybe 12.Im just guessing and could be way off too.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
