I don't know about Nestle but I know some of the companies people have shunned for using child or cheap labor, in a lot of cases are companies that go into a very poor community and bring jobs paying 100's of times more than these people would ever be able to make without them and in a lot of cases provide housing and do a lot of charity/community services in the areas.... Sure they are getting cheap labour but they are bringing a better life to 100's of people in an area where they would be out of work and very poor to begin with... I think there have been cases where some of these companies have actually tried to pay normal wages in some of these areas and it caused MAJOR instability and a lot of issues...

Imagine everyone is making 5 cents a week, bread would be a lot cheaper, the markets/food would be a lot cheaper, etc... Now bring in a company that pays 100's of people $500 a week, there are going to be markets that charge 1000's of times what they normally would have for the same market because you now have people who will pay that much more for things like, food, etc.

Anddd... I just realized this is about child labor not cheap labor... Fuck nestle for child labour... but in many cases a lot of companies going into poor places to make factories, etc are actually doing a lot of good... Assuming they pay fair wages (compared to what is fair in that area) and provide a safe work environment. Some companies are shitheads and abuse the local laws and provide unsafe work environments / have people work with nasty chemicals, etc. but overall there are a lot of companies who take advantage of cheap labor in a way I think is very fair and positively stimulating to the economy of a poor place.
