Davis/Bacon is an act where the government sets the prevailing wage for projects that are federally funded. It's only objective is to raise the cost of construction projects so the labor rates are "in-line" with Union wages.
It's a mess, time consuming and only increases costs. Every county in the state of Georgia has a different "prevailing wage", all of which are about double of the "normal wage" for similar projects.
It was enacted in 1931, I would say it has outlived it's usefulness. Davis
