If people don't want to work for you, then you have to pay better and/or improve working conditions. There is nothing more to it. There has never in the history of the world been anything else to it.
There's nothing wrong with "western workers". There's something wrong with your family.
Some jobs are just inherently bad. People do them, if there are no better jobs available. If you increase the wage, people will do the job for a while, until they have reached sufficient financial stability. Then they can afford to switch to another job that pays less but provides a better quality of life. Or to retire early in extreme cases.
That's fantastic! Wouldn't it be tyranny to make people spend their whole lives doing such a job? It's good that people do it for a while for a good wage and then move on.
I think you're being too hard. Working at a Wal-Mart is much easier than a factory job, considering the latter is usually dangerous, and has more RSI risk.
It'd have to pay at least double, and me being in a predicament, for me to gamble with my health, and only until I find a better option.
