minus-squareCosmicTurtle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·8 months agoThe problem isn’t that you like cheap produce. The problem is that corporations profit off of the exploitation. Your price could remain the same if the company was willing to accept less profit. They would still be rich. Just not as rich. And that’s a problem with almost every company in existence.
