What about the billions of people who lead miserable lives so that we in the industrialized North can enjoy high tech?
It's not like we have *replicators* that make this high tech stuff.
Does anybody on this list work in a factory? A farm? Are there any subscribers from the Global South who work in factories who can share their thoughts?

INTERNATIONALISM IN PRACTICE
An American soldier in a hospital explained how he was wounded: He said, "I was told that the way to tell a hostile Vietnamese from a friendly Vietnamese was to shout ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ If he shoots, he’s unfriendly. So I saw this dude and yelled ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ and he yelled back, ‘To hell with President Johnson!’ We were shaking hands when a truck hit us."
