It's up to us all to  ensure that people are not abused or exploited just because we need something and want it cheap, the cheapness depending upon people being exploited severely. We have gotten away with doing much on the cheap, and if we are to have a good social order we will be unable to do certain things on the cheap.  

So food will cost more -- then raise the allotment for food stamps.

Why would you expect this from me? As a general rule, I don't waste time teaching people who should be educated enough know better by now. I tend to write them off and leave them to their own fate.
