in typical BBC "guilty white man" fashion, this video is. And the "social activist" angages in asking leading quesitons - a no-no in a court of law - and he uses typical idiotic leftist language, like he is "surprised" to see the spraying of pesticides without protection. Give me a break! On the other hand, as a businessman I would sympathize with the grower and via cunning and flattery get him to provide protective clothing. Social activists are losers. businessmen are winners.

I think a lot of people would be willing to help them if they understood what was going on. Also, these people well never be independent if they don't get to grow up healthy and get some basic education.

Why would the price of cocoa collapse? It still costs the same here. It would seem the middle man is making a bigger profit?
Child labor was abused in the early 1900s, which brought about Child labor Laws.
These children are working to eat.
For the bleeding hearts against these children working I ask, "Will you feed them."
If not, then let them work and eat.
Then let's look into the reason the price of Cocoa collapsed and why the children are getting paid such a low wage?
