Do you think Capitalists fixed this, or do you understand that child labor was stopped by Worker struggles?
Which countries still have child labor? Are they capitalist?
Repealing child labor laws is a mainstream conservative position in the US.
Numerous, and yes. The US is re-introducing it in many Republican states, as a quick example, and Nestlé is in a lawsuit for employing child laborers in the Ivory Coast, also Capitalist. It's unfortunately far too common in developing countries for international corporations to take advantage of them and exploit them mercilessly.
The US does.
I'm more interested how people in USSR had their chimneys cleaned.
