Kandrathe "...how utterly powerless we are to stop it."
Can you really not understand, or do you refuse to? You are *not* powerless.
Kandrathe "And, until there are legions of like minded throughout all the nations the world, nothing will stop the exploitation of people or the planet."
There you have it. If you accept your responsibility, that legion will have grown. You can't decide for others, but you can decide for yourself.
Kandrathe "My hypothesis therefore is that all products are made by exploiting either people or the environment. All farming, mining, and manufacturing must stop immediately. Humans are suffering and destroying the earth."
You just tumbled down the slippery slope.
PS. Kandrathe, did you read your own link? The subtitle is
"Seven years after the industry agreed to abolish child labor, little progress has been made."
About halfway, I find this:
"...introduced legislation mandating a labeling system for chocolate. The industry fought back..."
And it ends with this:
"We have given the industry plenty of time," Engel says. "I am not prepared to give another extension."
This article explains the situation pretty good, imo, and I advise everyone to read it fully. Glad it wasn't me who came up with it :whistling:
