The city on a hill isn’t shining
It’s eight a.m. The Hispanics have started up their weed whackers and lawnmowers. Sure, it used to be common courtesy to wait until 9 a.m. for loud yard work, but not now. Not in America 2.0. They’re actually being considerate. Sometimes they get started at 7 a.m. They’re hard workers, and it gets pretty hot out there.
