Amen! Look around you - particularly if you live in Washington, DC, area and see all the Latinas working as maids and nannys (?how you can call someone a nanny when she has no education is beyond me; she is a maid). If you pay attention they are basically "slaves" - provided with room and board, paid a pittance for 24/7 duty just so they have something to send "Home". Many do not even speak English so they are isolated - can only communicate with their "employers" - have no friends and spend their day off (if they get one) in their room in a basement. It is certain you could not get a U.S. person to do this - even though there are many who would if they were paid properly.
