I’ve never really understood why people object to me holding a gun to their head and telling them to give me all their money. I’m not reaching into their pocket and taking it, they are choosing to accept the deal I’m offering. Absolutely nothing is making them their arm reach into their pocket and pull cash out, it’s their choice. They are free to say no and get shot in the head.

Is that how you think a free market works?

  Do you really think these people would be working for an unlivable wage if they had the choice of a fair one?

    So basically these companies offer something better than what they already have, no?

  If the market is so free, how does Wistron have any employees? As soon as they didn't pay, you'd think all employees would have quit and went to work somewhere else.

  Are you asking if I believe that externalities exist? Yes?
