Economics and Their Inferior Position in the Mainstream Society

Economics
　 Foreign laborers can do anything we don’t want to do, like take care of old man, working in the dangerous construction site and so on. They also only take less money from their boss. It makes the boss love employ them because they work hard and doesn’t cost them a lot of money.
　　When they live in Taiwan, they have to spend a lot of money to buy the articles for daily use. If they spent more money, Taiwan’s economic would rise faster. It means that if we were to dislodge foreign laborers, we might lose a lot of stimulate economic consumers.
　　Foreign laborers also bring a lot of foreign culture and their exotic. They use this preponderance to keep the stores like exotic restaurant, exotic shop and so on. Because the prices in the shops are very cheap, it attracts many local or foreign people to buy or eat something in there. Even in the economic recession, the shops still full of many people. It is to say, the foreign laborers are the one of major characters in our economics.


Their Inferior Position in the Mainstream Society
　　Most of the foreign laborers’ English and Chinese are not very well that our communication is handicapped by the language barrier. We can’t communicate without impede with others and always make the meaning to be wrong. Because of that, most people always hold them in contempt. Local people also think foreign laborers are dirty and disgusting just because their skin color is very deep.
　　Foreign laborers are always distributed in second industry like the factories, construction sites and so on. Most people always to think the second industry are lowly occupation. Because of that, local people always think of foreign laborers are in the inferior position in the mainstream society.

The language barrier is referred to here. I am a speaker of Esperanto. This planned auxiliary language serves as an auxiliary language. When I have been in Bulgaria, Croatia, Italy and other countries whose languages I do not speak, I always use Esperanto to establish local contacts, and get to know the coiuntry. It is certainly the case that Esperanto has fewer speakers than Englsh, but it does have a dynamic and vigorous speech community.

I think that Esperanto deserves to be more widely used. Take a look at www.esperanto.net
