Food for Thought...

Has anyone else listened to this fascinating, albeit distressing, episode of This American Life? How did it make you feel? Does any of this change the way you think about your possessions? Do you agree with the Krugman quote at the end, that sweatshop labor is both awful and wonderful at the same time?

"Mr. Daisey and the Apple Factory"

Mike Daisey was a self-described "worshipper in the cult of Mac." Then he saw some photos from a new iPhone, taken by workers at the factory where it was made. Mike wondered: Who makes all my crap? He traveled to China to find out.

It's definitely worth a listen, especially if you have a computer or a television or, you know, wear clothes and shoes and stuff.
