Review

This book was a hard read, raising really hard to swallow topics - although I would prefer to see a more rounded approach.

Forced labor still exists -as a world wide problem. Political prisoners not limited just to China. Consumerism of cheaply made goods hurts everybody, including our planet.

What is the common reason for all of these problems? The book lists one cause - consumers. If customers were not demanding, companies would not have to use the lowest cost providers that follow questionable practices.

But really the reason is money.
