Althouse: More than 12,000 Bangladeshi children are needlessly blind.

July 1, 2005

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

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

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.; 7/1/05, 1:03 PM
