How Capitalism Justifies Child Labour - Part 2 - Day 309

This is continuation to my Previous blog - How Capitalism Justifies Child Labour - Day 308.

Here is another example of how the Capitalistic System has abdicate its responsibility with regards to Child Labour and within that, deliberately not seeing, realizing and understanding the direct relationship between Capitalism and Child Labour and how thus furthermore, the Capitalistic System as the Consumerism system IS the system that perpetuate Child Labour in this world while all alone, using g massive Psychology technics to manipulate and divert the human consciousness to never see one's responsible and thus, maintain the Status Quo of Abuse and Suffering in this world.

 

Here is a Question and Answer taken from the website Capitalism.org:

What halted child labor in factories? Throughout history the parents of most families could not produce enough to support their families without having their children work also. It was the accumulation of capital by the industrialists that increased the productivity of adults, so that children did not have to work in fields or factories. In poor non-capitalist countries they are still working in fields and factories, because the parents are not productive enough to support their children. Historically, children working in factories (and fields) was only a transitory stage between early feudalism and capitalism. Prior to working in factories, before the Industrial Revolution, many children (and their parents) used to die and starve, as evidenced by the high infant mortality statistics before the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. Observe that is was not until families left the “country” and went into the “cities” that they were able to produce enough food to eat. The clearest evidence of this is population and infant mortality statistics: population did not go up and infant mortality did not go down until the Industrial Revolution. If life was so great before capitalism in the “country”, why was infant mortality so high and population numbers considerably lower before capitalism? Answer: because life was not so great until the Industrial Revolution made its appearance.

 

 

Let's have a look at the first statement:

Throughout history the parents of most families could not produce enough to support their families without having their children work also. It was the accumulation of capital by the industrialists that increased the productivity of adults, so that children did not have to work in fields or factories. In poor non-capitalist countries they are still working in fields and factories, because the parents are not productive enough to support their children.

Yes, in Poor Non-Capitalist countries, the children works or shell we call it by its name - are Salved and Forced to work in the fields to support themselves and their Families. Now, why is that?

If one watch the Documentary - 'The Power Principle' one would see, realize and understand the US Agenda in keeping these Non-Capitalistic countries in it's current state of Government. Within that context and for the Full picture of what is really going on, I suggest reading the book: Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.

 

The Capitalistic System is the Force that made sure that these kids will forevermore remain slaves and will have no real change to fulfil their upmost potential. Instead of having a system that Equally support all whom involved in the production of a product, the system preserving the Status Quo within a blink of an eye.

These kids are forced to a life of Modern Slavery because we want to pursue our Rewards, that which makes us feel good, our happiness without giving any care and consideration for all who are involved in our perceived happiness. All we care about is to maximized our profits even if that means that others needs to be abused on the way. We are so good in denial that we can't even see what we are accepting and allowing due to extensive brainwashed done deliberately to make us Organic Robots. For that, I suggest watching the 'Century of the Self'.

 

Here is a Real Solution to End Child Labour and those who are able to implement such a solution are those who currently exists within Capitalistic Countries as we have the access and means to do just that:

 

WHAT IS PROFIT-SHARE?

Currently profit is the money a company makes after they have covered their costs, including paying out wages. In an EMC - profit comprises of all the added value that is placed on resources - which is your labour. Therefore - within the price, the percentage share must be included of each one that was part of the creation of the product in such a way that each one ends up with an equal share of the company's profits, so - there will be no need for wages - as the profit becomes your wage.

 

EQUALIZING WAGES – COOPERATION AMONG CORPORATIONS

If a company at any time makes more money than they need to provide each one with their equal share of the profit as well as covering their costs - those monies will go into a fund that is responsible for assisting companies that are not making sufficient to cover their costs and provide each one with their fair share. That way a balancing effect takes place so that all companies are not only cooperatives in how they cooperate internally - but all cooperate with each other as well…." (Day 163: Equal Money Capitalism - Redefining Profit)

 

Let's have  a look at the second statement:

 

Historically, children working in factories (and fields) was only a transitory stage between early feudalism and capitalism. Prior to working in factories, before the Industrial Revolution, many children (and their parents) used to die and starve, as evidenced by the high infant mortality statistics before the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. Observe that is was not until families left the “country” and went into the “cities” that they were able to produce enough food to eat. The clearest evidence of this is population and infant mortality statistics: population did not go up and infant mortality did not go down until the Industrial Revolution.

Here is another justification for why we should continue with the abusive Capitalistic System and defend it by stating that at the moment, the infant mortality rate is much less than before. Now, the truth is that infant mortality rate wasn't reduced due the Capitalistic System but due to the advancement of Medicine and technology. The Real question is - Why these advancement are not implemented world wide? Why not Equally share what we have so that others would have?

 

Also, I'm not sure that statistic is even accurate and measurable because it is isolated from the entire world and only measure the before and after of the Capitalistic countries without investigating the Consequences that lead to Infant Mortality as an outflow of the Capitalistic system. 

 

Again, what is not yet seen, realize and understood is that anything can by justified to keep the Status Quo in tact. The Question is - will we accept and allow these justification or we stand up and make sure that all have access to what the world have to offer? Why can't we not exists within the Principle of Give as You would Like to Receive in its absolute application?

 

If life was so great before capitalism in the “country”, why was infant mortality so high and population numbers considerably lower before capitalism? Answer: because life was not so great until the Industrial Revolution made its appearance.

Here again, a statement that should activate a form of acceptance within and as you. yes, your life is much better now because you have slaves to make it so without even being aware of the existent of such slaves. It's brilliant actually. Life wasn't great before the industrial Revolution and it's not great now. We would expect that Capital would be utilized to make life great but instead, it only perpetuated the gaps and cause severe Poverty, abuse and Suffering in this world. Life isn't great for the Majority of this world but Life can be great if we create a world that is literally best for all where happiness can be really expressed and lived without the harm and abuse of any life form. Understand one thing, as long as unnecessary suffering exists in this world, one can not protest for one's own happiness because if one does so, one is in complete separation from that which is here with no real values towards Life and all that Life is consisting of and existing as. If one is able to be happy without making sure that all have the ability to be happy in this world, what does that imply?

 

Let's stop all justifications for the Problems in this world but instead, take our responsibility as life to Correct the problems and establish a system that protect, respect and honour all life forms.

Investigate Equal Money.

How Capitalism Justifies Child Labour - Day 308

I found it fascinating how Capitalism justify, defend and excuse the Atrocities of this world through comparing itself to other Ideology. These justifications/excuses is like a child that did something wrong and when the parents caught the child, the child would say: "But look, what my brother/sister did is much worse and therefor, I'm fine, no reason to be mad at me".

The Reasoning I found on the website capitalism.org are based on Fallacy however, unfortunately, the reasoning are aligned with our principle of self interest and therefor, we accept these reasoning and defend it as if it was the truth, completely deny and ignore the consequences of our acceptance and allowance that had manifested in this world as a result.

 

Let's look at the following Questions and Answers from the website - Capitalism.org

 

Doesn’t capitalism lead to child labor in factories? No. Capitalism did not create child labor working in fields or factories. It inherited it from the previous political systems. Observe that in communist Cuba of today 11 year old children are forcibly sent off to “summer camps” where they spend time working in fields cutting sugar cane and tobacco — this is called by leftists as “volunteerism” and “education”. Yet little mention is made of this. What halted child labor in factories? Throughout history the parents of most families could not produce enough to support their families without having their children work also. It was the accumulation of capital by the industrialists that increased the productivity of adults, so that children did not have to work in fields or factories. In poor non-capitalist countries they are still working in fields and factories, because the parents are not productive enough to support their children. Historically, children working in factories (and fields) was only a transitory stage between early feudalism and capitalism. Prior to working in factories, before the Industrial Revolution, many children (and their parents) used to die and starve, as evidenced by the high infant mortality statistics before the dawn of the Industrial Revolution.

If life was so great before capitalism in the “country”, why was infant mortality so high and population numbers considerably lower before capitalism? Answer: because life was not so great until the Industrial Revolution made its appearance. Will labor laws banning child labor in non-capitalist countries put an end to child poverty? Contrary to leftist rhetoric passing child labor laws in these countries will not solve the problem, but will only lead to mass starvation — which is why the “poor” themselves resist such laws. It is primarily for the benefit of the rich, leftist “humanitarians” — that live in capitalist countries — who cry out for these laws, that these laws are implemented.

 

Yes, it's true, Child Labour was existent before Capitalism, does that justify in any way Child Labour? the face that child Labour exists in other ideologies justified child Labour in any way whatsoever? NO!

Doesn’t capitalism lead to child labor in factories? No. Capitalism did not create child labor working in fields or factories. It inherited it from the previous political systems. Observe that in communist Cuba of today 11 year old children are forcibly sent off to “summer camps” where they spend time working in fields cutting sugar cane and tobacco — this is called by leftists as “volunteerism” and “education”. Yet little mention is made of this.

This statement is actually stating: "We got the Child Labour existence from the Previous Political System and this is why, one cannot blame us for it and besides, the Communist system allows child labour either so nothing is perfect". Again, I deliberately used the words within the expression of a child because it seems to be as a childish-like Behaviour where no one is taking responsibility but instead, shift the responsibility to others by dismissing one's wrong doing by highlight another's faulty behaviours.

 

I've walked intensively the point of child labour in Uzbekistan in its relation to the Capitalistic System around the world and how, due to lack of our education in understanding where we get our clothes from for instance, and who is involved in the production process from the fields to the stores. We are talking about massive modern slavery of all range of ages that is accepted and allowed by the Capitalistic world because as long as we get our rewards in a form of cheap and fancy shirt, we would not questions points like child labour and its relationship to capitalism. I suggest watching the Vlog done by Kelly - Review: A Woman's Journey to Life: Human Sweatshops will END in Equal Money Capitalism

 

The fact is that the Capitalistic System is ABLE to Eradicate child Labour around the world once we transform the Capitalistic Value of Money from Greed, Control and Power to a Value of Life that is best for all and in that, insuring that all children and their families have access to the world resources which include food, water, clothes, education, health care and so on. 

 

So, the fact that Capitalism didn't create a new form of Child Labour but rather 'Inherit' it from previous ideologies system, isn't validate the responsibility of the Capitalism system to make sure Child Labour is no more and in this, walking the necessary steps to make sure that ending Child Labour won't affect the better beings of their families but vice versa, through building a foundation of a sustainable Life that is dignified and worthwhile wherein no modern slave exists to benefit those with the Money within the Capitalistic System.

 

You can look at this in the following way -

Let's say that your neighbour died from some sort of circumstances and you left of raising their children. Now, before the neighbour died, you knew that the way the neighbour treated their children is inhuman and abusive and as a result, their children are facing behaviour problems and difficulties to socially connect with the world. Previously to the Neighbour's death, you felt that you couldn't do anything to protect the children because it wasn't your concern according to the system eye's view and there were no legal ways you could support the children. But now, once the neighbour died, you are responsible for the kids, despite of their behavioural problems. What would you do? You have 2 Options - Accept the Old and allow the continuation of unnecessary Consequences or stand up and assist and support these children to the best of your abilities. The first option would result with more time for yourself, with less responsibilities and you could enslave these kids to run errands for you or force them to make you food for you while you ley back on your comfortable Sofa and watching some Reality TV show. The Second option would mean that you'll have to give up from yourself to another, have greater responsibilities and no slaves to do stuff for you.

The Capitalistic System Statement above is a Mirror for the First option where one would say for instance: "oh, I'm not responsible because I have inherited the kids as they are and I won't do anything in my power to assist and support them. this is who they are, who they will be and I rather utlize what is here to maximize my living condition and well being".

However, if there is anything Good within you, and you have the ways and means to assist these kids, you would choose the Second option because that's the human thing to do and you won't use the excuses of this is what it was and this is what it will be. Am I right?

 

Same with the current world system - we cannot say this is what it always have been and this is what it will be - we have to take our responsibility and walk the corrections to resolve the problems within the system so that no one will have to suffer the consequences that we are directly and indirectly responsible for. This is our responsibility as Life, to make sure that everyone have their Life to Live no matter who and what they are. Life is Here and it needs to be aligned within the Principles of:

- Give as you would like to receive

- Do unto another as you would like to be done unto you

- Investigate ALL things and keep that which is good for All.

 

So which option will you walk? Option No.1 Remaining absolute ignorant which would result with the continuation of the abuse in this world and thus would place you in a position of an Abuser of Life or Option No.2 - Stand up for a life that is best for all and utilize this ONE Life that you have to make sure the Correction and Prevention to the Current world's problems would be established and implemented? You decide.
