"valuable goods ... benefiting everyone" not on the cost of others is what's lacking here
If other people are buying what you produce, in almost every case you produce something valuable, and a person who buys from you benefits.
There are exceptions - drugs, weapons, slot machines ect.
But basically everything you see around yourself that was made by man, was produced by a successful business, and bought by somone who needed it.
you missed something when citing me
It's not on the cost of others, its a fair exchange. Both sides benefit
And the people in the middle? Sure, the people exploited for the production of those goods benefited a lot. The child forced to harvest coffee and chocolate really enjoyed the transaction.
It's fault of their governments
Really? The western companies exploiting them aren't to blame? The western companies that pay off people to look the other way? The western companies that organise military coups? The western companies that murder opposition? The western companies that send their trash to the country to destroy the market there?
You need to stop feeding the trolls.
