All in the name of cheap consumer goods. I am guilty of purchasing these goods which means that I am, in part, responsible for these deaths.

Do you really have much of a choice? It seems nearly impossible to find consumer goods that are manufactured in places that value their workers.

It truly is tragic, on so many levels.

It's called "the invisible hand of the market,"..... and its got you by the balls.
