More than 12,000 Bangladeshi children are needlessly blind.

Here are some nice pictures of ones who have had their sight restored.

Yea! Though blind beggar-boys shoes do'th make
regard'th ye not old Sam Walton a rake
verily American consumers be'th on the take
Woe! They pay'th now higher prices for vision's sake
Alas! a surgeon's scalpel consumer's consumption do'th slake

Ronon - I've had some dealings with that LDM - he is quite mad. He is suggesting that blind children would be easier to exploit but since humanitarian efforts are reducing blindness, 3rd world merchandise will be more costly because non-blind children would have to be paid more. LDM has been shunned and banned from many, many blogs. It is best to simply ignore him. I think he has some real cheek implying that humanitarianism interfers with profit taking.
