I think he (jpsb) is just another one of the many on these threads who think it is better for these laborers to beg on the street for food and watch their families suffer than to work for a few dollars a day and provide their families. The first option offers no hope, the latter does. But, somehow, it's not acceptable.??

Millions of Chinese are pouring into the cities begging for the kinds of jobs jpsb condemns. Unemployment in the rural areas of China is 50% or more. I guess these people should just rest in comfort, even though they aren't eating, knowing that they haven't been exploited and that jpsb is feeling better about himself 10,000 miles away. LOL

It's more than that. It is argued up and down these threads that the Chinese are poor, and don't have the money to buy stuff. If that was truly the case, then why does Wal-Mart have 40+ stores in China, and plans to open 10+ more?

Charity begins at home, my objection is the millions of Americans workers being displaced by 15 cent an hour foced labor. I addionally resent the thouands of small US retailers being forced into bankruptcy by vainly trying to compete with the low wage/low cost Chicom distribution centers setup here in the USA. Lastly I have nothing but comtempt for any America that supports or defends such a system.

Yeah like you really care about these people. If another country that popped up that would do it less than china you would be all for it.
