10. Absurd!

Edited on Sun Mar-04-07 06:13 PM by quinnox

I get tired of the "we all must feel guilty" meme on Du.

Guess what, those people have jobs in the other countries, a lot of them are lucky they have that, and consumption helps them have and keep their jobs. Some (hell, a lot of them) have no jobs and they live in deplorable conditions with no money. They would do anything to trade places and have the jobs those workers have thanks to the huge consumption appetite of the United States.
