There, I started it. Enjoy.
The question is, in a global economy based on capitalism, is it possible to create economic incentives to protect workers and/or disincentives or sanctions for mistreatment of workers?
While within developed countries, there are labor and wage laws and standards, how is it practical, possible, or even rational to impose similar standards on developing countries who may lack the infrastructure, governance, and even education to ensure workers are treated humanely?
Related issues include who decides what is fair, whether there is true freedom of expression and the press in developing countries, the role of government, etc, etc,
Thusly kicking the hornet’s nest, I now run away….
