You can read an old incarnation of this topic in the General Archive, page 29. I believe it started over at Desperance (because Djur, who ran it last time, linked to a Desp page that is now deceased) and then migrated here, although I don't know that.

I do like the idea of making Alec, under the name "General Custer," into the Sioux Nation. That was rather clever of Djur.

Well, I hate to say this, but... *takes the plunge* how is boycotting sweat shops a good thing? I mean, think about it. They're not being payed much, but they're at least getting something, which is better than the alternative: nothing. Maybe a large boycott could convince the Western businesses to clean up their act. Maybe it would force them to close down the sweat shops entirely, turning that something into nothing once more. Hey, I don't like the conditions and the pay any more than you do. I just think that there must be a better solution than letting those children and their families starve to death because our scruples will not allow them even a small part of what they need. Working 24/7 for peanuts is better than sitting around 24/7 for nothing.
