2. Absolutely not
The global economy would crumble without the 4 year old girl who makes our shoes for a penny.

America wouldn't be America without slavery. The civil war didn't end it, it just outsourced it.

If the global economy was to collapse without those 4 year old's, that would be fine by me. But for that to happen, we'd have to change the entire exploitative system in which we live in, and have for hundreds of years, if not the entire history of civilization. Maybe one day.
