"Locals just don't want to do this work anymore" (+ "for the terrible wages we're paying")
These free-market fucks, this is supply and demand. Shortage of labour? The price of that labour must rise until demand is satisfied. It's the same argument they use for increasing your rent when there is a shortage of accommodation. Except here, they can import and vastly underpay (exploit) overseas workers.
Good, fuck 'em and make the cunts earn their profits.
EXACTLY!
