I never said you could build a house or a bridge without a carpenter. I work out of LA the only jobs that employ union carpenters are prevailing wage jobs,most big jobs hire nonunion carpenters for $15 to $20 per hour no benefits. A carpenter is a semi skilled job that is easy to replace.

No, your definition of Carpenter is distorted, a carpenter knows the difference between right and wrong. A standard set in Europe years ago. Not so easy to replace.

Halliburton "Carpenters" build crates for down hole tools, with 5 yrs. exp (you'll be lucky to make to the 7 yr vested mark) a hard up contractor sees this as a defense in court with the stated "carpenter" verifiable experience and takes a risk.

Poor kids.

I've worked many jobs in my 40 years as a carpenter/superintendent your definition of a carpenter is very different from mine apparently. Being a real carpenter is a highly skilled job. A guy who walks around with a bucket of nails is not a carpenter. A real carpenter/journeyman has full knowledge of plans, might also be a certified welder if necessary. We build anything and everything. I've worked at Harvard, Yale, many other private universities and colleges, Monsanto, many industrial projects that are privately owned, a few Federal jobs and State jobs, dozens of high rise buildings also privately owned. Clean rooms and laboratories require people with a high skill level, good math skills and so on. A good carpenter is like an engineer, he can figure out things on his own without running to ask someone every 15 minutes what to do next. I've hired hundreds of carpenters in my life. According to you someone who can put frozen cookie dough in an oven is a chef. Good luck with that bullshit.

Petroleum products

https://www.hemphelps.org/hemp-over-petroleum/

“Hemp fuel


Hemp fuels- Environmentally friendly fuel sources

The basics: Hemp can provide two types of fuel.
1. Hemp biodiesel – made from the oil of the (pressed) hemp seed.
2. Hemp ethanol/methanol – made from the fermented stalk.

To clarify further, ethanol is made from such things as grains, sugars, starches, waste paper and forest products, and methanol is made from woody/pulp matter. Using processes such as gasification, acid hydrolysis and enzymes, hemp can be used to make both ethanol and methanol.”


Plastics and foams etc

https://ministryofhemp.com/blog/why-isnt-hemp-plastic-everywhere/

https://www.hemp.com/hemp-university/uses-of-hemp/hemp-plastics/

That’s just for petroleum and excludes hempcrete and other useful and durable products.

I support union carpenters they do a better job. Local 433 Los Angeles California & southern Nevada men above men.If those Balconies had been made out of structural steel they would not have collapsed.

If I understand you,you're saying ; it's at least ok that dems leave a few crumbs?

so you settle for crumbs by voting dems into power?

the entire process demands a house cleaning (no pun intended)

In your opinion ...there is the rub
I see things differently and you see it as "my way or the highway"

Dude, you are being cleaned.

It's Republicans trying to get you closer to China wages..

Never admit you you can make a profit with union talent, you just might get kicked out of Korea. (Along with SC)

Every Apple eatin American knows $15.00hr. is better then $32. with bennies.
