Multinationals don't do anything the Western consumer doesn't force them to do.
I have yet to witness a company that ventures outside the borders (high risk
investments!) just for the fun of it. It's the home market (consumers!) which
doesn't want to pay home market wages. Julian, go buy a costume which is made in
the UK from A to Z. I doubt you can afford that. So either someone in the UK has
to get poor, or you have to find someone outside the borders, to sew that
costume for *you*.

Isn't your sociologist's socialistic political agenda blurring your vision?
Isn't all this talk about how the multinationals "done it" out of fashion yet?
