Although child labor is on the decline, it's remains widespread and prevalent throughout developing countries, fueled largely in part by corporate America. 200 million children are affected by child labor, and 120 million of these are subject to its worst form. Consumer greed aside, decreased marginal costs, increased revenues and profit margins, and decidedly larger bonuses lead unethical managers to offshore production to contractors with full workforces of children, from ages 5-14. It goes without saying that employing children for manual labor is morally intolerable.
