corporate powers take advantage of third world countries for their women. These women are subjected to horrible working conditions. Women work long hours with small amounts of sleep, food and water. Multinational corporations like the United States build manufacturing plants in third world countries to increase production at low cost because they don't have to pay greedy Americans. Women around the world who work in manufacturing plants are dehumanized. For the rest of their lives they will only know how to work in forced labor. Hard work doesn't have to be physically taxing; it can also be mentally taxing. Jobs such as bartenders, prostitutes and hostesses are mentally taxing for these women. Pleasing other men every night just for their pleasure and just to make ends meet does not bring positive thoughts into a woman's mind. Third world women deserve the same rights just like women from first world countries. The corporate powers will no longer take advantage of these women if a stand is taken against them
