Michael, I am talking about young children working in developing countries instead of attending school. I am more particularly referring to the kinds of things Bill Clinton said this week are particularly immoral--children working in dangerous, back-breaking jobs, as prostitutes, etc. Was it he who said you cannot have free trade based on slave labor? I would second that!

I never use "catch phrases"--I try to be very specific. Well-fed American children delivering newspapers is not what I was talking about. I am talking about children squatting in dusty factories sewing soccer balls together with toxic glues all around them, for one example. I am talking about teenagers working in Nike factories on very long shifts, living in dormitories six or eight to a room and eating very bad food infested with insects. Would you like more examples?
