There’s tons of demand for unskilled labor. There’s also tons of supply because literally almost everyone can do it.

There's lots of demand sure, but the amount of demand doesn't outweigh the amount of people that are available to do it, like other jobs. This is why I went with the word surplus. There's a surplus of people that can do the job
