These working people who can't find jobs are addicted to opiates or refuse to educate themselves. Dirt cheap illegal laborers slave over jobs a white American would never, ever do.

They’re just terrible jobs people who aren’t desperate wouldn’t do.

If you don’t believe me, go clean a slaughterhouse one night, or pick strawberries in the hot sun for a day.

Edit: Automate these jobs.

Any system that creates winners also creates losers.

Not true.

Counterexample?

Systems of water sanitation, unless you want to count cholera and dysentery as losers.

Arguably those don't create winners, because the concept of "win" necessitates triumphing over others.

Yeah I don't know anybody personally who feels like a winner because they have clean drinking water. It's universal where I live. In places where it's not, you might feel like a winner when the neighboring village doesn't have it, and sucks to be them.
