    Meanwhile Americans eat beef from slaughter houses in the Midwest that use children as a cleaning service.

          Child exploitation is not unique to capitalism.

            Neither is rent-seeking, but both are much more widespread and severe under capitalism than more egalitarian systems.

            Most “good” systems try not to flagrantly enable downsides, either. The point is capitalism isn’t solving those problems. At all.

        Agreed. Point being, any company can exploit children in any country, 1st or 3rd world.

      I remember when that article came out I had a passing thought that it was probably JBS Grand Island. Low and behold… Not fucking surprised.

      I worked at a company that did some upgrades for that system and that place is vile. It was hard not to puke in the parking lot some days and I remember walking around the outside of building (left), and seeing all of the spray downs on the way to the freezer.
