Very true. But American companies DO take away the livelihoods of self-sufficient peoples by buying land (with sources of wealth these people couldn't possibly have had access to) and then offering them 5 cents an hour working on land they once owned. Even if they aren't beaten or killed, they are forced to conform to a system which allows them only bottom-feeding rights, where they once were masters of their own fate. Surely this is considered taking away freedom?
Sorry Volsung but that doesn't make any sense. Companies don't just "aquire" land then "force" the original owners to work on it. If anything, the original owners would be so wealthy from having sold their land, that they wouldn't have to work on it any more.
