I don't understand your reasoning. If an immigrant is happy to have a standard of living lower than what you consider acceptable, and willing to work for slightly lower wages, do you think it is is unfair to either:

1. Bar them from entry into your country 2. Allow them in, but prevent them from offering their services at a lower rate to compete with locals?

Because ultimately, if you let them in and don't let them work, some of them are going to be supported by social services those workers are paying for indirectly.
