Davis Bacon requirements on federal construction projects in effect means only union labor. What is the racial breakdown on the city’s construction unions membership?

I know it’s asking an awful lot for a “reporter” to consider such a question as it requires having some “actual knowledge” of how the world works.

Hahahaha...bold and italics on me, but it was oh so pertinent to the issue.

He's a journalist so common sense or knowledge of the working world is not required and in fact discouraged.

It is lost on the libs that a construction contract is supposed to get a job done promptly, safely, under budget and using best practices and duly qualified tradesmen and engineers.

And the white woman at the meeting is too busy tearing into that rubber chicken to pay much mind to the presenter, 555.....

You have to wonder what educational qualifications one must meet to get a journalism degree these days. Can't be much other than being able to print your name. Bet most of them don't even know how to write in longhand, let alone read it.

I did a lot of historical research on the Civil War, as a hobby. Spent quite a bit of time in libraries, historical societies, the National Archives, among the list. Having been born in 1947, we had to learn how to read and write longhand/script. Had I not been able to read longhand, I never would have been able to do the research I did, because every, single record from the Civil War was in longhand.
