The underclass is already created due to the nationalism of citizens in your country (and mine). The only question is whether you see them or not.

I guess as long as desperate poverty is out of sight, it's also out of mind, right?

...companies that operate within the country should be mandated to address it.

I'll be sure not to operate within Spain. Why bother with that kind of a hassle when India, China and Singapore are open for business?

Poverty due to endemic unemployment in Spain is caused by nationalism? And it can be solved via free movement of labour between third world countries and European ones?

Unemployed spaniards almost certainly live a far better life than the majority of India. The underclass is the global poor, kept poor by nationalists who won't let them cross arbitrary lines.
