But chances are you're posting this on a computer assembled in a sweatshop or wearing clothes stitched by underage women forced to OD on birth control and working in a nation ruled by a military dictatorship installed to assure the unregulated working conditions and tax-free exports continue. Or perhaps you ate lunch today, featuring food harvested or butchered by desperate illegal immigrants earning less than the minimum wage. You have to accept that either we all have blood on our hands, or we just don't have that much control over some of the uglier aspects of the modern world economy.
