It doesn’t take much to create opportunities.
There is a difference between a demand of workers and opportunities for risk takers. There is an abundance of workers I can choose from, but there are not many people who would take the risk to start what I and others started.
You know not everyone crossed illegally over the border. There are many that got work, student and tourist visas that over stayed. These people also started businesses and can lose them from being deported or self deported.
But sit there and not look for opportunities for yourself, doesn’t bother me. But don’t think with Trumps mass deportation effort there won’t be many changes for hustlers to get ahead.
