Hey and thanks for stopping by.
You raise two good points. For number one, I agree partially.

Perhaps that is the problem (we are not responsible). But as consumers that buy their products, we should have a say right? Right now, those countries are selected because they provide the cheapest materials. It's tough really. Pay more to those countries in order to get them to operate in "better" ways, or keep getting stuff as cheap as possible. Or, buy the materials from countries that have better systems in place, which keeps millions out of those developing countries that need that as part of the development.

1. Agreed on both fronts. Keeping the blockchain honest... I like that phrase. One step at a time.
