#1 There is a huge building boom going on here in Lubbock; new malls, private houses, medical offices and various other yuppy warrens going up seemingly at every intersection. This is all with little or no increase in population and no new industry.
A local developer recently confided to me that the reason is the "sharp drop in labor costs" making it possible to replace old units with new ones and "there is pressure to get this done while the (labor) climate is so favorable".

He didn't give any reason for this drop in labor costs but anyone who has been to one of the local sites can easily guess.

Incidentally, unemployment among union construction workers is at a record high in this area.

#2 Two days and only 1 illegal? Sounds like what they are doing is working. If the illegals get through the Mexican Army, now 1000 strong, on the far side of this section of border, and *then* they get past the newly-augumented Border Patrol guarding this section of border, then and only then do they have a chance of being seen by the Minutemen. What they ought to do is blow everybody's mind, and start doubling the distance between outposts. They might even stop illegals entering all of Arizona for a day or two, and cause several corporations stock to drop by a few percent.
