Matt I agree with you in part but you are forgetting that many of us have loyal long time customers who tend to stick with who they know. Thats why I converted all mine to wfp from trad instead of going looking for the so called big bucks of commercial work, which as I have found can be very business like and cut throat. Apart from inflation I didnt alter my prices from trad prices.Your argument also holds true for ladder users.
Immigrant workers are a different kettle of fish though.
