The Human Costs Of Electronics

[singular_me]

This short documentary reveals the hazards of the electronics industry in China profiling workers poisoned by chemicals and their struggle for compensation.

Thousands of young people in China enter export factories to make the West's favorite electronic gadgets, only to find they have contracted occupational diseases or worse, leukemia, by the age of 25.

and then lets also mention the "coltan war" that has killed millions of africans already as most coltan mining is in the hands of guerilla factions

The mobile phone is a remarkable piece of engineering. But look inside. There's blood in this machine. There's blood in this device because your mobile contains tiny electronic circuits, and they couldn't work without mineral called COLTAN. It's mined in the eastern Congo. There is blood here, the blood of Congolese who are dying in a terrible conflict.

death and suffering on ALL of our electronics... yet we call ourselves civilized

that was all a joke... now the Law Of The Pendulum, Rhythm is swinging back to us... jobless waves are just around the corner and will reach 40% of the job market in 5 years from now

I didn't dump it there so it's not my problem nor do I feel the least bit guilty

[singular_me]

is not about feeling guilty but grasping the interconnectedness of all those events and the demise of the planet

it is not my problem vs it is/are the evil corporations/NWO -->> divide and conquer

eventually we will be all held accountable, at various levels and in different arenas of
life

same with pedophilia... my kids are fine and secure. so I dont care..... and now we have a pandemic of child/human trafficking

every time we dont care (enough) its comes back with a vengeance... immutable cosmic law.

Let me explain this to you Singular.
This is scripture relating to the sins of a father or even a mother.

A childs teeth do not stand on edge when the father bites into a lemon.

God doesnt judge the child because of the fathers sins.
This can be applied to other scenario's.
The makers of the phone do not have blood on there hands because someone else found out using a mineral helps them build the device. The sin and judgement lays squarely on the guerilla oppressors. Not the makers or those who buy the device.

If that was the case then you'd also have blood on your hands for drinking simple clean water....hope you like dirty water.

As for the solution, what do you propose? Not buying electronics? You first: get rid of your computer. :D

[Glass]

Clearly the tech companies are making multiples of hundreds of percent profit from making the devices in "zero regulation" countries and they covering any of the social health cost to those countries.

The solution of course is to introduce a tax on the items which is used to pay for the true cost of the impact of the items.

US is beginning to roll out social conscience taxes under the guise of tackling obesity.
Down here we have 1 + multiples of Tobacco taxes under the guise of covering tobacco related health costs.
Possibly sugar taxes soon
Let's tax devices to cover health costs of labor who worked on making these
Let's also tax on disposal to cover costs of people who dig around in the trash.

Not making any comment on: politics of, likelihood money will go where intended, companies who profit immensely at everyone else's cost.

Just saying, seems to be the trend. Less reliance is a trend I'd like to see.

Lets think, a smart phone, stupidest gadget known to intelligent man. $50.00 bux a month. $50.00 Bux! to me that is a lot of food man. So we go to the dark side this thing is useless except to phone home. The GPS is minimal but enough to usually keep you out of the hooker zone (which is where I want to go anyways). Minutes later back on the freeway, wondering how we missed the fun there is no clue.

[singular_me]

I didnt know about people getting poisoned at the factory level... but knew about the rest... I like assembling dots

it is not about getting rid of our computers but understand that this cost is affecting us all.

the biblical crucifixion and all the wars/invasions we werent able to stand up against have another hidden meaning and it is this one.

the human cost of electronics is the evidence that all races are affected

a model based on profits is exactly what the cult of death is fond of... because when everything is transparent, there is no real profits to make anymore.
