Why hotel workers? That's not "hard" work. Long hours maybe, but I know there's tons of Americans who would jump at the chance if the pay was right. I don't agree with this for farm work either, but there's an argument to be made that seasonal out in the blistering heat manual labor is going to be a tough sell with Americans no matter what it pays. In construction there's anecdotes from contractors claiming even when they raise the pay they have a hard time getting people to come and work a full schedule. Hotel cleaning and maintenance? Blatant fucking scam if they're claiming nobody will take those jobs.

You're telling me that you wouldn't do that job for a single summer if it paid you seven figures? There's always a price point at which it become financially irresponsible to turn down the job. People just don't want to face how fake and propped up the economy has become over the last several generations.

Uh, not sure any farm owners would be willing or able to pay $1,000,000... but I'd do it for about three fiddy.
