I was trying to "fix capitalism". Ignore that idea.

Unless you are very young I'd bet you could sell your car & your computer and buy a few acres and maybe a shack many places in the world - including near me. Here is 3 acres for sale with city water and nat. gas for $12,500 - that's one year's worth of working at McDonalds, add in a couple grand for a 20 year old 12'-wide and yer set! Property tax is maybe $100 and there are no building codes in the county.



Then you have your farm and as long as you come up with the $100 a year by picking up cans on the side of the road you can sit back and do as little or as much as you want, my wife and I have been getting by OK on about what would be 1 person's full time minimum wage for 5 years now.

I do feel bad for those little Chinese girls, in fact I mention them quite often when someone buys some piece of crap gee-gaw at walmart. But read your link, the first subhead:

"The idea that ‘without sweatshops workers would starve to death' is a lie that corporate bosses use to cover their guilt."

Fixing capitalism... I think you might as well try to give a sociopath etiquette lessons.
