Disagreeing with you and criticizing your opinions and perspectives does not fall into the realm of personal attacks. No one's calling you names, or insulting you personally, just saying that you're making some pretty gigantic leaps in logic to reach the conclusion you've reached....P.S. I notice two personal attacks here directed at me.
The Middletons are a very, very small part of a very big economic system. Of course this type of labor is exploitative, but they didn't create the system nor do they have a whole lot of power to change it. The vast majority of cheap goods in the world are produced by underpaid laborers. It would have made a lot more sense for the Daily Mail to have gone after the companies big enough to influence the supply chain- Tesco. Walmart. (Which I believe goes by another name in the U.K.?) Companies like that actually wield a lot of buying power and that can influence suppliers. The Middletons' business? Small potatoes compared to all of those guys. The only reason they were singled out is because stories about them get more attention and because the Daily Mail enjoys writing hit pieces on them.
