tenacious_b Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I think any company that outsources to another country with a lower standard of living in order to take advantage of lower costs and make more profits should have to accept this a part of the cost of doing business in a manner that is in my estimation unethical to begin with. I think exporting jobs to other countries is nothing short of government sanctioned treason, and I am happy to see these manufacturers getting bitten in the ass by counterfeiting.

I agree 100% but unless you're one of the 13 people on earth who accept absolutely no hypocrisy in their lives, degree of sin is the operative concept. A few women making fake watches is a water molecule in the Pacific compared to the literally wholesale human rights violations enabled by our pals at Wal Mart and Target, not to mention the completely unnecessary death and destruction subsidized by your tax dollars...
