People would contribute if we didnt have an entitlement system in place that allows people to not work

Wow. you are a special kind of something, that's for sure. The employer says that the workers were lawfully working. There's been no determination otherwise.
As for the actual topic, yes, immigrants often take jobs with higher risks. Reminds me of the sky scraper photos from New York in the 30s, with Irish, Italians, and other New York immigrant workers happily working without fall protection, or the Chinese working on the railroad lines in the mountains out west.
The road workers in this case were not unusual for road workers in America these days. They were immigrants. That's part of the American story, always has been.

The same purpose of literally all articles written by WaPo, namely to promote the leftist agenda of the Democrat Party.

If they were not allowed to live and work here illegally, they would not be dead.

It literally says in the article one of them entered the country illegally.
Their current status doesnt really matter to me

While full details about the victims in the bridge collapse have not been released to the public, they are known to be natives of Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.
Well, duh. It's the US labor blueprint accepted decades and decades ago.

They all legally immigrated to this country.

I’m almost positive that’s not the way it works.

You just confirmed my statement is true. Whether it's because of entitlements or in some cases brain washing the fact is native born citizens are not doing the work some of these people are doing.

The WaPo will probably say this is Trump’s fault somehow.
