So in a way, when a company decides to produce in such countries, it’s killing local GDP, moves jobs overseas, simply because workers in China/etc can be exploited more extreme and at a larger scale that locally possible. Of course, buying not-the-cheapest stuff won’t fix that, it just increases profits for the company. Calling for transparency also isn’t working since even those sweat-shops are competing with each others. Hurray for unregulated capitalism.
