I don't disagree with you that slave labor is bad regardless of who, what, where, how. I disagree, however, that there's not much difference between purchasing products you need and investing in a business.
Some folks can't afford anything except cheap clothing/household goods from overseas, where they are often made in sweatshops with slave and/or child labor; it's not their fault that they can't afford to purchase ethical products. No one needs to invest in a business, though, so choosing to invest in one that deals in slavery is that investor's fault.
For those of us who can afford ethically-sourced/made items, though, I agree that it's quite similar. I have no excuses other than people are, as a whole, not good to each other. :(
It's just a little fascist; it's still good!
Anyone voluntarily participating in the US for-profit prison system is, almost assuredly, a problematic person with questionable morals.
It's literally making money off of slavery. If you would not be proud to call yourself a slave-owner, I'd hope you would also not be proud to invest in slavery.
Royal "you," by the way. Not OP, specifically.
This truck is taller than a used kid (10 years old).
Well there's your problem: you've got a used kid. New kids are, on average, about 5'9" - plenty tall to compete with today's civilian tanks.
Now this is the kind of wrestling I can get behind. Or in front of, I don't much care.
Justice is the one abortion of which they approve.
