Quote by: Tycoon  True, it is giving a lot of people jobs.
But I would agree with USSRv2 that it could have
been used for a lot of more useful things that
would still provide jobs. |
The ide athat something is good merely because it provided jobs is nonsensical. Forgive me for giving such a typical example, but Nazi Germany provided plenty of jobs. In fact, one of their slogans was "Arbeicht Macht Frei," or "work shall set you free."
Today, plenty of jobs are shifted to India, but the intent is to maximally exploit and subordinate the population, not liberate them. So the argument would be fine if it had some
shred of relevence regarding right or wrong.
