consider what else you wear today and take for granted.....my solution...if we are so smart why don't we get machines to do all this "manual labour" so the jeans can be sold for $4 and are better quality and the 20 cents profit can go to giving these poor workers a better education hence a better quality of life. a vicious cycle though....would it be slave labour to make those smart machines?
Westerners think they are slaves as well working for big corporations that don't care. But even those that work for an emerging startup also have resentment. Why is this ?
What do we actually want in this world ? Thats thought prevoking for Friday
