23. service workers
Edited on Tue Sep-20-05 08:38 PM by carolinarocco
"Because as much as rich white people like to have their gated, country club communities to themselves, they still find they have to let in the gardeners, nannies and maids. Their country clubs, restaurants and shopping areas need people to work in them. Those workers need businesses that take care of their needs."

nope, they will probably do like they do on Hilton Head, exclude the black people from living there (by pricing them out of the housing market) and have them bused in. On Hilton head the average service worker rides 1 1/2 hours, one way, from Beaufort to get to their $6 an hour job.
