  • @KripDrip Yes and those who frequent those brothels in Taiwan are pedophiles from the US. Proven by ABC.

  • @KripDrip Many of them look like toxic dumps. I am sure there is a lot of sexual and physical abuse going on as well. They go hand in hand bcz most of these kids are less than human to these Corporate Giants. Put one of their snotty kids in this environment and see how the feel. The God almighty $.

  • @KripDrip I failed to mention that there are sweat shops in Italy of all places. They make hand bags and I think the name of the company is Gucci (not sure though). What about illegals in Canada and the US. They are the only ones who work for minimum wage.

  • @KripDrip No I would not. However, these companies could provide better working conditions. These are kid. Provide them with breaks, lunches wouldn't be a bad idea. 8 hrs a day as opposed to 12-16. Americans wouldn't put up with that why shd they. These companies shd know better. They are making a fortunate on the backs of their sweat. Also, where does their schooling come into play?

  • its better to make $2 a day in a sweatshop than making 50 cents a day scavenging in toxic garbage dumps.

  • they are paying them human wages. Their wages are much higher than almost all the other jobs in those countries available for these people. The cost of living is a lot lower than in America so u cant compare their wages to wages here.

  • if u force them to pay higher wages, those jobs will disapear and then the kids will starve. do u want that?

  • just be glad what their paying is much higher than almost all available alternatives for these workers in those countries. Look at the alternatives they got. they could be scavenging in a toxic garbage dump or prostituting themselves.

  • do u want those kids scavenging in toxic waste dumps or prostituting themselves? thats one of their only alternatives in those countries

  • Fuck man I bet a lot of people watched this video and just forgot about it. From China to the U.S slavery, child labor, rape still happens and as you read this comment a child will be raped, a child will die, a child will cry because there parents are dead for cross fire in a war. We know what is right BUT will you do THE RIGHT THING. Remember this comment, search what you can do to stop these crimes. Or you can just keep living on a forget everything what I said. Just do nothing. become nothing
