That also doesn't change the problem that someone in the world has to be exploited in our modern world for it to function, though.
People don't need to be exploited for the modern world to function. That's a really reductive and dishonest take on how the world works. Some mineral suppliers abusing children via child labor so they can sell those minerals to some smartphone companies doesn't mean that's the only way smartphones are built or can be built, for example.
The people who think that literally think a rich person who owns a company and pays his employees well and treats them fairly is "exploiting" his workers because they don't own the company.
Actually, I didn't say the modern world can't exist, I said our current system relies on it. I also wasn't talking about people working for a company, I was talking about how many companies import materials and services from sweat shops from places like Korea and China where people work like 18 hour days in what is basically slave labor.
Defend companies like Tesla that do most of their work in the states, then. Rather than paint a target on their back whenever there are accidents or they aren't perfect.
And make it more competitive for American companies to produce in America. Don't shaft them with massive corporate taxes that are designed to fuel a welfare state.
Tesla is the perfect example of non-capitalism. Had they been supported by capitalism, they'd have failed years ago.
They literally only exist due to President Obama gifting them billions of dollars.
It's new technology that is far superior to gas-powered cars but required bootstrapping of funds in order to become tenable. It's perfectly fine for a government to invest in loaning money or granting money for laudable research initiatives.
Tesla paid their loan back with interest and extra on top to be nice, and their cars are in really high demand. So clearly consumers want what they're producing, and we're all better for it as a result.
That is why every other car manufacturer has committed to producing electric vehicles (some major ones even saying they will produce just electric vehicles within the next few years).
