Can go to Asia right now, and see cats working for $5 per day, 5-6 generations deep. Nikkaz act like these asians don't get pay docked when they don't hit quota, like they don't have to sell of their children to sexual slavery in order to survive sometimes, like when someone complains, one of them doesn't get killed as an example to the others who wish to protest and change their lives.
