    True. Very leading. That’s not necessarily china. That’s America. Musk was at one point the richest person in exist.

    I get your take on slaves. A disgusting practice that should be abolished, however until we as a planet stop buying products. That likely won’t stop. India also has a child slaves problem and American uses prison labour. Nowhere is really much better.

    Unfortunately there aren’t really alternatives. Our collective governments have sold out to third world countries. Buy used or second hand if you can and build what you can.

      We definitely do. 90% of the stuff in our house is from the thrift store. I have hand tools that are over 100 years old and still work great!
