So, I'm pretty pissed off

yes, who are you to judge the moral actions of companies. if slavery was legal, well, they're just doing what they're allowed to do. can't blame individuals for their choices if they happen to have CEO in their title.

[eric]

Well if that's the case then you should just blame the shareholders. If they didn't like the CEOs actions they could have him removed.

But yeah, basically who am I to judge their actions? And if it's legal, than it's acceptable in that country, unless of course we want to claim some sort of objective moral superiority.

Anyway, what's the alternative? Those companies pay more? Not employ children? Ok, back to the states they go, and all those people lose their jobs and go back to farming.

Frankly I'm not really opposed to that. Would maybe shut all these anti-Chine people up.

It is a disgrace that more governments haven't been promoting population control. When there isn't land, capital or jobs available to people what do they have??

We have too many people and not enough land, natural resources or jobs to keep them all productive. We also don't have the political will or ability to provide for them.

[The Comrade]

you seem to think it's okay to judge governments based on some objective sense of morality. weird how when it comes to businesses your morality gets ambiguous.

but fine, companies can't be judged for what they do. it's all the fault of someone else.

Man, if you don't know anything about TVs and monitors don't mess around with them. You have to discharge the voltage from the capacitor before you work on them.

You will get a nasty surprise if you touch the wrong thing.
