> Buddha and Jesus didn't use smartphones made in China, shoes from Vietnam, shirts from Bangladesh or cars from Mexico. Which you do. The semi-ironic thing about this is that it's actually more expensive (in the vast majority of cases) to get shoes or shirts made in the US or a Western European country than in Bangladesh or Vietnam. In fact, amongst some of the more well off members of my society, the fashionable thing to do is get locally made shirts which cost easily 3-10X what cheaper shirts made by exploited foreign workers cost.
