: I think that we, the children of the future, need to unite and make a stronger force and together fight the sweatshops. Together, we are stronger than each of us on our own. Let's come together and fight for this cause. There are children just like us right now on the other side of the world working 20 hours a day so that they can bring home four slices of bread, and if they're lucky, a rotted potato, to help feed their family of 10. It's the horrifying trith...this is a reality. This is no joke. This must be conquered...

Free children? Perhaps the children of the world ought to unite and demand legal rights, unlike the ones they currently have with their status as "legal minors." It's not a real solution, of course (a society where everything was shared amongst us all would be nice) but children are capitalism's biggest victims...

As for "Children of the Future," it was the title of the first album of the Steve Miller Band. I thought it was a good album.
