> When poor people do idiotic job for you they don't develop their society, economy and environment.
Yes, they do. South Korea is a prime examples of this, e.g. Seoul peace market where the people got enough income to start focusing on unionizing. That market went from sweatshops to an internationally recognized quality market in just a few decades.
Did the sweatshops suck? Of course they did, but the income took a people from trying to survive to realizing their worth and demanding better conditions while catapulting their economy into one of the most modern countries in the world in a matter of a few decades.
- scotty79 3y agoSouth Korea is the worst example of free market spontaneously leading to great outcomes through sweatshops. The amount of government cental planning and protectionism is I think unparalleled there for a success story.
