Most of the people living in Colonial America lived and worked on a farm. Although there would eventually be large plantations where the owners became wealthy growing cash crops, life for the average farmer was very hard work. They had to work hard all year long just to survive.
During the 1600s and 1700s, hundreds of thousands of Africans were forced to work as slaves in the colonies. Most New England families lived in small houses with one main room. They cooked on the fireplace and slept on mattresses near the fire. Colonial homes were like busy workshops.

<span>From outsiders perspective - not very different from disadvantages elsewhere, but bigger.
I see two, just from general paying attention to news.
1) resources extracted by colonists (maybe less so now, but still) and so not available to the natives of the reason, going instead to China or whoever is doing the extracting now.
2) Tough, dirty, dangerous job to do the actual mining. Tough - wears down the miners. Dirty - will cause long term damage, like black lung. Dangerous - both mining accidents and possible danger from dealing with the greedy.
So, to summarize, the risks are publicized to the regional people, the rewards are privatized to whoever has the power.</span><span>
