Just because you retitled the term slavery with names like sweat shop laborer or migrant worker does not mean those people are not forced to work in those places. a lot of times the only reason those people work as they do is because they were simply born in the wrong part of the world or to the wrong family. How many kids in Korea do you think aspire to work for .32 cents an hour 16 hours aday/till the work shift quota is filled?Not much of sweatshop man or rice eater myself (just to cover all bases, lol). Still chuckling that you won't acknowledge the difference between slavery and substandard working conditions. You think I have a favorite running shoe?
Made to kneel on rice with hands outstretched or outright beaten if they miss a deadline.. Just so you can have your fav running shoe.
Quote:To which I want to point out these are not even considered to be 'bad' conditions. their are far worse places to work in the world and the closer one gets to the raw material given products are made from the worse it gets.. Google India leather production. They are using a 2000 year old facility that reeks of death (rotting meat) and chemically treats the leather in big vats that what look like slaves from 2000 years ago stomp around in. which destroys their bodies. this same leather is sought after world wide to go in the best of the best designer shoes/products. If I remember correctly those people were making less than .50 cents a day.Don't own any leather.
Quote:Or google sulfur mining in that same region or ship scrapping. those two products can be found in just about EVERYTHING modern life demands!Not sitting on a pile of sulfur from those mines, or any scrap ships.
Quote:Maybe you should explain to me how you (as the rest of us) are not driving a market that not only condones the use of slaves but rewards it by letting them make record prophets with little to no oversite if we are all tied to the products and raw material directly produced by the people?See above.
You condone slavery..and I do not. I tried to be reasonable with you, to allow that you're tying yourself into a knot for no good reason, but you've been insistent. I guess this is just the fruit by which I should know the tree. I don't know what else to tell you bud. Not sure why you launched off into any of the above before answering my earlier question. When did you sneak into my house and take inventory?
