I wish I could find someone to mow my lawn for $20. I thought I was getting a pretty good deal at $40.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

It takes me 2 1/2 hours to do it myself. I don't have that much free time. Besides, I'm helping the economy by paying someone else to do it.

Nah, my guy's legit. He gives me a real invoice and makes me make the check out to the name of his landscaping company. He also plows during the winter. You don't see many Mexican snow plow drivers. Besides, he lives on my street and we don't allow any immigrants, whether they're legal or not in my neighborhood. It decreases property values.
