I always wonder what happens with migrants when they become citizens, which makes them no longer want to do that work? Does becoming "an American" suddenly make them lazy or incapable? Or is it something else?

Nope, around it in Texas. 1st generation works hard jobs for life hoping to educate kids into easier life. A lot don’t escape it for generations. Small town beef plants pay better than the rest of employers. They have hope for their kids, though

I mean, if it's something one hopes to 'escape' can you really blame anybody for not wanting to do it?

Citizenship means they can get better paying jobs that don't break their bodies down to the point of being disabled by the time they're 60. Most hard physical labor gets you injured regularly. Construction workers are way more likely to get hooked on opiates b/c of job injuries.
