题目: Re: we are a beacon around the world, and poor oppressed and hopeless people all around the globe dream

Czuch: Czuch.. many mistakes were made in the past that have affected their quality of life. Many of those mistakes were made by the western world.

It bugs you that people are working to reverse those mistakes and to make these people self reliant?

There are also many newish orgs giving back by buying these countries produce at a fair price, and/or helping them establish a better standard of living. Eg "Fairtrade" and "Rainforest Alliance".

For many years these people have been exploited by companies by paying low rates for their produce. That is really starting to stop. At least over here it is.
