    So you could surmise from that, that if everyone got a better education then no-one would be doing manual work anymore. Maybe this is why education is tulip nowadays as those who have had a better education are using that to suppress others as they need the proles to do the manual work, except they don't, the educated just import it from abroad

      And at the opposite end of the wage scale:

          It's all Maureen Lipman's fault.

              I think that goes to show it isn't so much a matter of the type of the work as it is a lack of motivation on part of some people to go and find it. It's not as though the trades pay a pittance in the UK or most of the anglosphere.

                  WTF is Europe?

                  More seriously, the US, Canada, the UK, NZ, Australia and Canada, in this context.

                    Its actually a real word, as such, which I've never heard before although it seems to have been made up by a writer. Are you sure about Canada though seeing as some of them would rather be in the Francosphere and the USA is becoming more and more of a Hispanosphere?
