IOW, the doctorine of selfishness.

And if the manufacturer makes his product using slave and/or child
labor?

This has come up wit other groups and other products. Child labor is
a problem in some countries, but not buying the product is not the
answer.
If you put those factories out of business the kids can no longer
afford a bowl of rice. What is the solution? Since you want them shut
down, you must have a better idea.

Buying products manufactured with slave or child labor only perpetuates
that abuse and that poverty. Buy the competing product that costs just a
little bit more and pays a free adult a better wage so they can send their
kids to school.

Period.

So let the other kids starve? I don't see where you offered a solution,
just some self righteous posturing.

So you're saying that in China the options are to be slave-labor for
Apple and Nike or to starve? So much for Communism and the state-
controlled economy.
