      I can sit here and spin the exact same question about reducing global exploitation.

      Reducing global exploitation would implies self sustainability and with the west, particularly the US, they never reach self sustainability with their current economic model of giving 95% of their production/wealth to the top 1% while a very large portion of its population is struggling economically/mentally/physically.

      It’s a stepping stone in the problem of global exploitation, but it can’t happen overnight nor independently.

        The thing is that the nordic model still gives the lions share of the wealth to the 1 percent, they just use the proceeds from exploiting the third world to supplement the wealth of the domestic working class.
