This was a very interesting video of how we spend money on cheap goods from third nations and consume at rocket speed.
As I see it, this is the ugly backside of the capitalist society that we live in. Corporations have become so powerful that nobody (goverment) can stand in their way, they do what they want, when they want to. And somehow we accept this fact, it’s all about the money, where ever you look it’s money this and money that. How can we save money? When can we close down the production and move it to China? etc. Where does this stop? Because the greed that the leading corporates in the world is showing right now, it will have to be appocalyps to take back the power.
Something that really got to me was the fact that their was toxics in the breastmilk of mothers wich they later gave to infant babys. This fact makes you want to cry, we are supposed to be humans the most evolved beeing on the planet, yet theese things happens.
Also how the corporates wants consumers to shop as much as possible, now a days you can’t find any product that will last a lifetime. And the corporates have found ways to shorter the life-span of products by making it impossible to use it longer than what they want it to.
And last I would like to say that it’s a shame that we can’t stop the pollution of Dioxin, god forbid the ceo:s of the largest companies don’t make that extra dollar.
