[forensic]

It's impossible for me to have perfect information, or even relatively accurate information about the working conditions of the people who made my stuff.

Also since working conditions are subjective value judgements, I can't even objectively say that someone is working under bad working conditions.

In the first world there are high-rise window cleaners. Some people would consider washing windows a mile in the sky to be cruel and unusual punishment. Others consider it a thrill and would pay to do it.

I am not qualified to determine the difference between a sweatshop and just a highly efficient assembly line. Even if I was qualified, I would not have the necessary information. Even if I had the necessary information, I use too many products for me to examine the supply lines of each one. Even if someone did this for me, they would not be able to probe into the dark depths of communist China.

No, this doesn't fall to me. The working conditions of Chinese people are the responsibility of Chinese people. I will engage in trade with Chinese people and let them decide how they wish to work and how they wish to organize their society.

Ethnic paternalism is so 19th century.
