wow, frankly i did'nt expect to run into this view point here. however, debate is always good. ok, so you believe it's not all bad for large companies such as the gap to have factories in foreign nations to provide a job market. these large corporations know that these individuals in these impoverished nations are in desperate need of jobs and money, and they completely exploit that. if you're not going to ask for the actual removal of these corporations from these nations, is it wrong to boycott or hold civil protest in the name of actually reforming the working conditions these people are under for these greedy global tycoons? i really don't think so. also, by taking the stance that these corporations actually add something to these nations, i don't think i'm mistaken by assuming you can only be in favor of globalization. ideally, in my opinion, after reforms for these places of employment, we should try to limit the global reach of these companies, (and capitalism as a whole) as much as possible. we should try to stimulate different economic growth in these areas. these people should be self sufficient and begin to develop their own economy rather than feeling the pressure to work, and working at one of these factories. besides, do you think these monstrous companies in all honesty give a rats ass about the people they are employing in honduras, or saipan, or where ever else? do you think they care about "providing a place for these poor people to work"? no. otherwise they'd have better working conditions, or would provide aid in some other way. these companies would have factories in this very country run in similar fashion if they could get away with it, i assure you. as long as the profits are rolling in, none of the fat cats at the top are going to care who is doing the grunt work. |
