    "My men enslave people in africa to get rubber and murder them if they dont gather enough rubber and then we ship it here and then we have lots of rubber in belgium and the suffering happens somewhere else where I’ll never be

    imo this is the ideal system"

      What about not enslaving people?

      And of course people in weaker economies get paid less, they also need less since everything is cheaper.

        If you don’t enslave people, you’ll need communism for high living standards

        Edit: What if your slaves want more pay? Will you give them more pay so they get the same as in your country, or will you threaten to kill them if they stop working for you?
