Not so long ago there was this provocative slogan "Stinginess is cool" and many people meant it not just ironically, but seriously. Financial optimisation, as much yield or return as possible for as little investment as possible. In the western world, we can afford such ideas or approaches. In many areas, we are in a better position than the poor. But this actually means: the more power, the more responsibility. Today, however, this is often ignored and a lot of power means a lot of personal benefits for some and the needs of others are of no interest. In addition, there are complex global interrelationships, long supply chains, etc. and so it doesn't matter what the actual producer or worker actually receives for a cheap product. As a buyer, do you take your responsibility here and question cheap offers and perhaps consciously choose a more expensive one that is transparent and gives the worker more?

I wish you an extraordinary day!
