    If you could push a button and kill the person without getting caught, would you do it for a million dollars?'

    Why is that sick? Who wouldn't?

    you liberal fool. if Nike weren't employing the peasant children, they'd be either working elsewhere for 1/10 the pay, or starving along with their families who no longer have supplemental income. ever stop to think that if there were better jobs around there, that people would take them?

    i'm getting a little sick of spoiled Westerners applying their rosy ideals to a completely different world. "Twenty cents a week?? But how can they afford latté??"

    Consider us Americans. We write a check to
    Israel. The Israelis fly their US made
    helicopter gunships and slaughter impoverished Palestinian
    women and children. We can change the channel
    when we get uncomfortable. The future is here!

    Isn't that basically what the US did in the Gulf War (aka the video game war)? Oil (ie. money) was the main reason for the war, and killing people there was largely pushing buttons.
