    If you got a way for americans to give large amounts of money to chinese and indian people without that being exchanged for good and services I’m all ears. For now, their quality of life is significantly improved compared to doing subsistence farming.

      yeah I don’t even know how you’d start to gather data on the QOL of subsistence farming vs kids working 12 hour days sewing stuffed animals and shoes

      but even if your assertion were true, a small QOL bump for a group of people an order of magnitude larger than another group with a huge QOL bump is like the basis for any dystopian story of the last 30+ years
