reading this is like.. the twilight zone for me.. capitalist and imperialist defending and justifying exploitation.

I like how this guy is harping on unions being "non-competitive" when sweatshops literally impoverish the countries they are opened in. They pay better than the local businesses, sure -- but where does the company's profit go? Back to the States, to Europe, to Japan. To the coffers of executives in companies that can muscle out any local competition. Sweatshops are almost as "non-competitive" as monopolies. I mean, they practically encourage monopoly.

I also like how he literally states at the end "Yeah it fucks over workers here too which is great"
