you seem to be heavily betting on low skilled workers just dying in peace without any trouble at all, all over the world...but it does not work that way and every low skilled worker you put out of work creates pressure on the others...

the sahara dessert was once a lush jungle...then 1% of plants died out...then the temperature rose because there was 1% less shade form the sun now...then more plants died out...then the temp rose even more and so on...soon there was nothing...this is exactly how it works in economy too...

you can not shrink your market and not feel the effects...
