Robert Owen (Dan Hasan)
People throughout time have always taken advantage of one another. For people of our country to take the jobs away from those of that country is wrong. Yes we are gaining more money but then we are not all equal. We should be trying to improve the conditions of our own factories instead of running off over seas. It would also be hard for people to go to from their homes to work. There would be social awkwardness. The labor unions wouldn't function as well. Shifting jobs oversees if anything should be avoided.

I agree with you, but we could take advantage of other countries without shifting jobs overseas. We could trade with other countries to obtain their natural resources and make a profit for ourselves out of it. We could also export products of our own to make money. This would enable us to access natural resources we do not have. As I stated before, we might even be able to profit from it!
ReplyDeleteWhile I support improving the conditions inside the factories, doing so would require money. The money would most likely result in a decrease in wages or the dismissal of workers, either of which would cause pain for the workers and their family. Such an act would not be moral, as it does not maximize utility.
