Evidently you don't give a damn about the men who went over there and fought for your country...or their families.
BUT I DO!

Revolution? In 2000, Vietnam, textile-industry wages were 22 cents an hour. A Communist country in which the means of production and the system of exchange was seized by a revolutionary party in the name of equality. Just a generation later, the children of those Leninist guerillas in Vietnam are making handsome profits from sweatshop labor. Comparing the average wages of textile workers in Viet Nam with those in Taiwan ($4.78) or Hong Kong ($4.62) provides a sense of reality. Revolution? yea right...
