Thank you, Fia. The world is a cage and, we the ghost. It’s sort of unsettling, isn’t it?

If we could see all the corruption in the world, the earth would light up like a night sky with a million stars. You did such a incredible and detailed analysis here, VOI. Great work.

The problem isn’t China it’s us….the consumer that buys their products.
Before China there was Japan and after China there will be others for multinational corporations to plunder and exploit and we will continue to buy from them
Great thought provoking write.-

You’re correct. The US always had others making cheaper, and or better made products. From the 1970’s forward, many of our products were made overseas. Thanks Pete.

Can we stop buying what is presented to us cheaply. Prices go up and we are stuck in the hamster wheel of wanting to do right but it’s often not.

Of course not. It’s the CEO’s of these firms not wanting to pay American workers cause we want more then minimum wage and representation through the unions. I mean why not! Thanks Fia.

I remember seeing a video where someone took a MAGA hat and turned it around to show it was made in China…which pretty much sums up the issue. Take as much as possible, give back as little as possible and never worry about the other guy. The humanity of the world has become devalued. Brilliant piece

HA! Love it! That’s great. People today worry about their own hides and nothing more. Each year it continues to become more & more of a problem where the values of people in general are at the lowest common denominator. Thanks Willow.

Good work here. Plain, clear, brief, and to the point. It puts all we do in perspective regarding manufacturing and consumption. There are many causes: corruption, greed, graft, poverty, laziness, stupidity, sickness, mental illness, and lack of education are the prime movers. Mix and match and you get governments — meaning the PEOPLE who govern –that are corrupt, uncaring, inefficient, underfunded, overwhelmed, and driven by combinations of all those causes I mentioned. What do you get? Man’s inhumanity to man, our oldest and most practised activity.
This is a nice piece, well said.

This is unhinged in the best way 😂 Dark humor + fast food mythology = instant read.

What about perplexed soul fast food? Does it include diet cocaine? Everything is so darned conceptual these days.

Diet cocaine with frozen heroin on a stick. Lick a few times and see where it will take you. Thanks PAR.
