"with their money they built the canal;


they dug the earth with your blood"
I think this most relates to Silver People because they risked their lives working in the Panama Canal and they were not paid a lot.

"With their money they built the canal; they dug the earth with your blood and now dollars are sent to New York leaving you the graves.".

They just wanted to finish building this 'world wonder'.
