1. This is the all too ignored truth of capitalism.

Edited on Tue Dec-12-06 12:05 PM by Selatius

Capitalism has been regulated at the national level, but at the international level, it is virtually free to do whatever it pleases. Globalization is a greedy capitalist's wet dream because it allows him to dodge laws that would regulate him by simply expanding operations to another continent in order to shield himself from those laws.

The sad truth is the living standards in the industrialized world came about because of resources raped from the third world, and one day, the poor will come back for what was stolen from them for generations.
