    Because China can outsource everything to India, while India can outsource everything to Africa…

    makes me wonder what would happen when we run out of cheap labour in third world countries

    but I guess, no one will ever let all the (other) countries develop enough for that to happen 😠

      The impending climate/water crisis is likely to make us find out! As conditions worsen it will effect “third world countries” the most (and highly dense countries), forcing an unprecedented wave of immigration. Our systems aren’t built for this, and we seem fully unwilling to change anything until it is actively on fire.
