We shouldn't allow it, but nevertheless we do. Sure, our society will

children, working under horrible conditions... :(

My only complaint about this is the notions that governments "allow" these
things to happen as if the governments could prevent them from happening. I
used to be a liberal about such things but now I have become convinced that
the government cannot prevent this sort of thing because it cannot control
the forces that create these horrors. It is just hubris to think that any
government can do this.
