Quote:Trump wants to build a wall as Texas developers complain about shortage of Mexican laborers to build homes

Quote:While presumptive GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump is leading in the polls in Texas by promising to build a wall between the Lone Star state and Mexico, home builders in the area are complaining about a labor shortage that is keeping them from getting homes built and is driving up costs.
The problem? Skilled Mexican laborers who have gone home and haven’t returned, reports WFAA.
Lacking skilled tradesmen, the completion of homes under construction in North Texas is falling further and further behind, adding up to $7,000 per month to the cost of a home.


It isn't only the farmers who are bitching it seems.

They can't be too skilled.  Have you seen the typical house in Mexico?
