It's all just a different form of slavery...and it's all nicely hidden away on the other side of the world.

I'm acquainted with quite a few people who would buy them all and then resell them for a profit ... thinking to themselves, "suckers!"

There are two groups that tend to oppose cheap labor in 3rd world countries... those who advocate for paying them more, and those who don't want those people to have the jobs at all.

On edit - I suppose I could have watched to the end to see who made the film. They're the first type. Good for them!
