I'll have you know they do have machines in China. From my research (on liveleak) I also know that they tend not to have safety rails.
You can pay one person 5k for 40 years, or you can use a machine that cost 200k upfront that breaks down in 10 years.
Which one are the capitalists going to choose?
Years? 😂 Capitalists just know the slave driver needs $1250 a quarter (to keep the pallets flowing).
America was founded on slavery and that established a certain quaility and way of life. When slavery was abolished many people wanted to keep the lifestyle that was built on the backs of slaves but without relying on slaves (cheap sugar and foriegn produce for example). Eventually corporations figured out that most people won't care so long as the slavery is out of sight, out of mind, by being done in another country.
