Works absolutely fundamental things for us to stay alive as we get paid from works and thus we could live our life. There are many types of work in our world. Every single work has its own specific task and field. For instance we have engineer that built the houses but also at the same time we have another engineer that done their work in part of industry. Capitalist might say that they had provided many chances of getting job but the true is there are part of this world where people are not been hired. For people in third world country their life seems miserable as they unemployed as thus they don't have money to buy essential things to survive. Thus Capitalist see this as an opportunity for them to pay the low wage to the workers as the worker of third-world country seem do not have another better option between working and get low wage and no paid at all. It is like they have force choice. Capitalist might claims that they have done a good thing in provided more jobs to the people that needed it. It is undeniable that they had done a good thing but the true is people suffered from the priority of capitalist which is making profit. This is because as the capitalist trying to maximize the product, they have to keep move fast as the line moving non-stop. Capitalist also hire a manager to keep an eye of the workers and make sure that they done their job. this probably makes them uncomfortable as their action have been watched .the worker also deskilled and uncertainly they don't have chances to improve their skills as they do the same job over and over again. In my opinion, they should given chances to gain knowledge and skills. So that it could help the community and they also could done various job instead of doing the same job for entire life thus also can developed the economy of the country. For me, capitalism might be good in provided job but the situation for the worker just could be the same as the owner and the shareholders will gain the extra profit while the wage of the labor will stay the same. If there is increase, it even no t reaches 1% of the profit.

I agree somewhat that it is a good thing that capitalist are providing jobs for workers in third world countries. The workers are of course doing deskilled labor over and over again but it seems somewhat unfair to me for the intense speed requirements and sometimes unfavorable work environments that these unfortunate workers would have to settle for such dirt cheap wages. Workers are required to punch in many keys per minute and stare at a computer for an entire work day with hardly any time to talk and sit in uncomfortable seats at computer jobs. Other factory work allows workers to do their part of the assembly line over and over again also at rapid speeds. I know that if these workers could afford any other option they would never take part in these work conditions that makes their bodies ache and at computer jobs, strain their eyes to the highest extent. The labor laws are not protecting these people from the terror side of capitalism that misuses the less fortunate.

Capitalism definitely has its fair share of flaws. Capitalism is like a gigantic competition between all of the corporations in our country to see who can acquire the most capital. Anytime there is a competition with great rewards to winning, there are going to be people doing whatever they can to get to the top, even if it involves doing things that aren’t up to everyone’s moral standard. You can see this in the way that companies treat workers in third world countries; working them to death in harsh conditions while paying them almost nothing. When there is nobody policing these sorts of things to ensure that people’s rights aren’t violated this is always going to happen. That being said cheap labor is a necessity for capitalism, and I do not think it is necessarily wrong to outsource production to other countries. I do believe that these workers should be treated fairly and paid a fair wage. Also there should be some sort of previsions to help these countries be more self sustaining in the process. Outsourcing in third world countries has the potential to be very beneficial in helping that country out of poverty, but that is never the case. Something should be done to make sure that does happen.
