Yes, shame on Firestone. I've heard of child prostitution and the kidnapping of children to become militia men or drug traffickers, but making them carry buckets is a new low.
I happen to have talked to a friend that was there a few months ago. Firestone has built schools and homes for their workers. The Liberians love Firestone.....there is no jobs and no welfare. Sometimes a child must work to support his little brothers and sisters cause dad won't help he is at his other girlfriends house making her pregnant. I lived there this is how it is. Stop being so damned self righteous. They are glad to have the work and money.
Children of American Farmers have been working harder than this forever. I worked on the farm as a child and still managed to graduate college. I am not saying its right, but life is not fair.
Shame on those who allowed or are allowing this to continue. I'm going to be direct; shame on Firestone and the Liberian government for allowing this type of practice. You know this type of stuff will not fly in the U.S. As a matter of fact, I just got a quote on the price of a dump truck tire from Firestone, and it was $347.00.
