It&#x27;s because the major proportion of those laborers have little to offer beside manual labor.  Therefore as a labor force at a disadvantage, the publication takes the side of the plight of the disadvantaged.  Of course a lot of the blame can be placed on the societies who value education too little to educate their population.  On the other hand many of the laborers are unprivileged in their home countries as well.  So it&#x27;s also a double whammy for them.<p>This particular issue is of less concern to American workers and if anything it&#x27;s a good thing in that no one has to do backbreaking labor.  It&#x27;s like decrying the loss of coal mining --yes, it&#x27;s a loss for the people losing those jobs, but society as a whole and the labor force as a whole is better off without those kinds of thankless and really hard jobs.<p>The sad part is that we have unskilled people willing to do these jobs.
