Intriguing. The discriminatory intent and effect seem undeniable, but the lack of any formal complaint baffles.

Just like other minimum wage laws, the impact is disproportionally felt by the young, unskilled, and non-white (which was the original intent of Davis-Bacon). Employment, albeit at low wages, offers an opportunity to gain some skills (and earn something) instead of having absolutely nothing to do.

That's because it's one of those "third rails."
