It’s my moral obligation to help those in need. In Bangladesh, they make clothes, and are happy to do so. I like paying them so they can have a decent standard of living.

I pay Americans to fix my plumbing.

And so on.

The idea is that housing those factories ultimately will provide Bangladesh with the opportunity to lift their overall standard of living up, whether they manage to take advantage of it, remains to be seen....but it has been done before.....in South Korea, for example...which before the division, was considered to be the poorer part of the country.

Never understood why people think that 40.00 is somehow a pittance.

Those people were once accustomed to making nothing. 40.00 is a lot of money to them. People over here went through the same thing 110 years ago.

There is no skipping this stage.
