Why didn't they just use robots, or enslave another existing race, or just do it themselves?

Creating a race to mine for you sounds pretty convoluted and a lot more tedious than some of the other options available.


Cause they were black.

That's true.......the black race was genetically engineered for the purpose of mining(originally)!

However, they make far better basketball players.......IMHO ;)



Nah, the aliens were intergalactic space brothaz. Think P-funk.
