slippery slope argument..."if the west did not invade they would die from hunger"...also farming was made more productive and easy by means of enslaving the black man...for example hands were cut off if production quotas were not met...this makes farming real easy
father watches foot and hand of son cut off because of production quotas:
meanwhile in the west, one billion people will die from tobacco in this century alone (WHO claims this not me), alcohol/war/obesity/drugs/stress will kill off further billions in this century...
every system has its pros and cons...
