Re: [RC] [RC] Are you aware? - heidi

The workers in these countries you speak of are not slaves.  These
workers  get paid money even if it isn't much.  The workers do not get
tied up and  chained by their hands when they don't do what they're
supposed to.  The  workers do not get flogged when the trainer feels
like flogging them.  The  workers were not abducted or purchased from
their parents for a pittance  because the parents are so poor they are
unable to say no to the man with  the bag full of money. The workers are
not fed only biscuits and water to  keep their weight down below 50 lbs.
 The workers are not forced to ride  camels at such an early age their
sexual organs no longer function.  The  workers do not sleep on the dirt
on the ground outside. The workers are not  3 years old.  The workers
are not sexually molested by their trainers.  The  workers are not
refused medical treatment because their enslavement is a  violation of
International law. The workers are not buried in an unmarked  grave in
the desert where no one can see.

Sounds pretty much like the things that have been documented in China,
Howard.  BTW, do you buy gasoline?
