It's not that simple. It's not that only the rich or those changed by greed are those who are beneficiaries of third-world labor. Even those of modest first- or second-world means pay less for manufactured goods or the like. For that matter, the computer one is typing on very well may have been manufactured in second- or third-world Asia for a fraction of what it would cost to do so in a first-world country.
Some people in this world have asked themselves how much of what they utilize is "Made in China" or some other such country.
