The introduction of mass production was clearly exemplified
in the sugar industry in the Americas as well as in Europe. What ticked me off the most was that even
though people were aware of the treatment of the slaves, who were the ones that
worked the fields in the Americas, they did not bother to do anything. This brings about some of the problems that
we are currently facing and the problems that some activist groups are trying
to resolve. In the current day, there
are many companies that continue to exploit their workers who have no choice
but continue working in the same manner because they either work or die of hunger. Of course, the treatment that some of these
employers give their workers are not the same as they were back then, it still
includes horrible working conditions, low wages and hazardous exposure to chemicals
in certain situations. All of this only
benefits the so called ‘big fish’ of the company whose aim is to increase the
profits.
