Re: who exploits who?

you're right - it's the capitalist system that's the root of the problem, and because it's a self-perpetuating thing that denies there is any alternative to it it's going to be difficult to overthrow! but maybe world war three would do it (coming soon)

and I know all about the time and energy put into worrying about what to buy. You should have seen me last night in the evil Safeways deliberating over the ham (stand for five minutes, go to deli counter, ask about outdoor-reared pork to utter bemusement of astonishingly ignorant butcher, he can't guarantee any of it was raised outdoors, I laugh in his face and tell him none it is, I collect shelf packet of outdoor reared ham and carry it half way round shop, in the end I return it to the shelf feeling guilty about buying meat at all (it was a kind thought for my boyfriend's sarnies))

all that guilt and worry

and repeat 50x round supermarket or any other shop
