This is true, but at the end of the day, that's where those people get the money they need to survive. Refusing to buy a banana isn't going to magic them up another industry.
Sure, but don’t pretend it’s for the benefit of the people working in unsafe conditions for extreme poverty wages to provide the developed world with cheap bananas.
An individual not buying bananas isn’t going to change the industry, and neither is telling people you have to buy bananas to save the poor banana farm workers.
