It’s not “Germany”. It’s german factory owners, who are chasing profits. That is a big difference and we should use the correct language here.
I mean, VW is at least partially owned by a federal state of Germany
Yeah, but VW is not the norm, but a really special case
🤔
- Sell factory linked to forced labor
- Invest elsewhere
In other news, it is said that companies around the world are starting to cut prices and costs and scale back activity in China.
The interesting bit is that the Asian Times doesn’t mention too many specific new German companies which allegedly have been investing in China recently. It just says things like German energy costs are higher.
[Edit for clarity.]
Was just seeing the same. The Asia Times is likely referring to the explosion of dropshippers in Germany, where everyone and their mother has a storefront to ship trash from China to the EU.
Surely moving all the worlds factories into one country isn’t a smart idea.
This Excel Sheet says it’s very profitable. Isn’t that the same? /s
Srsly, those stupid managers.
Now, on an unrelated note, let me invest my retirement funds into whatever ETF that performs the best.
Actually you bring up an important point. I feel like any investment into shares makes you complicit. Is such thing as an ethical ETF possible? What do you do with money you want to invest instead?
It’s almost like the entire system of finance capitalism is completely broken. Almost.
But think of the profits!
BOOO! HISS! BOOO!
Stop empowering China while weakening your own country.
Well that’s not very nice of them!
