And just 70 years ago we had similar circumstances in the western world. There is no reason to believe that sweat shops and child labour won't go away in developing countries as well.

That's the thing about progress, you can be better off than yesterday, and still have a shit load of problems to solve.

I hear you.

Still, from what I gather we’ve peaked the heck out of this industrialization and not enough of the gains have reached enough people. As people we know better, but as industrialized conglomerates all that is out the window.

Seeing how the world is ruled at present I’m weary of the outlook.
