The other day on ONTD_P I saw one of the comm's resident idiots arguing vehemently against the movement to ban sweatshops on the grounds that it "steals jobs" from poor people in third-world countries. The discourse included, among other things, railing against "unreasonable regulations" like child labor restrictions, minimum wage or maximum shift hours length.
It would have been hilarious if it wasn't so disgusting.
