It's easy to look at how bad things are and lose sight of the possibility that this might be an improvement. Somehow foreigners keep coming, despite the abuses, so either these people are complete idiots who can't figure things out even after decades of being taken advantage of, or things actually work out well for most of them. Keep in mind that the exploitation may be just as bad, or worse, in many of the places these people originate from.
