State Supreme Court to Hear Labor Case Against City of Vista
Thank you, Dave Rice, for going and finding a non-anecdotal, transparent, and publicly accountable source!— March 26, 2012 2:28 p.m.
State Supreme Court to Hear Labor Case Against City of Vista
Mr. Denholm: please follow the link instead of tossing out unsubstantiated numbers. See for yourself that: (1) the 22% figure doesn't come from heavy/civil construction; (2) land costs are not included in the Economic Census-derived stat (and since when has the typical highway project entailed land acquisition costs??); and (3) residential remodelers' construction worker payrolls account for under 30% of that sub-industry's total "value added." The arithmetic is not hard. I'll take statistics based upon the Census-compiled responses of tens of thousands of California contractors over your "in the neighborhood of ..." number any day!— March 26, 2012 2:03 p.m.
