I believe the most interesting thing that we did in this class has been the discussion board threads.  It has been good to see other students takes on the topics posted. I was fascinated at child labor laws and the history of it in America as well as globally.  According to an article published in the International Journal of Sociology and Social Policy there are still 41 counties globally that don't protect children under 18 from performing hazardous tasks in the work environment.  It is interesting to see how different countries operate on the spectrum.  Is there a justification for allowing children to work?  The video we watched in the past linked cheap labor to national wealth.  But don't we as humans have the obligation to protect children over a profit.  It seems like me that profit and ethics don't always see eye to eye.  Especially in under developed countries.  Prosperous countries have more room to be pious than poor countries.
