I live in a poor country like this -- it's odd to me that there is a huge stigma against giving even a few dollars directly to beggar children, but if it's a factory paying them the same amount for a day's work then it's ok for you as the consumer to indirectly pay that wage through your purchase.



The question realistically is: Would you send your kids to work in a factory?


If the choice is to otherwise let them starve, yes.
