When it comes to politics, probably the area I care the most deeply about is poverty in underdeveloped countries. When I saw the news today about Obama suspending trade privileges with Bangladesh, it literally made me feel sick. Are there insufficient working conditions in Bangladesh that need to be fixed? Definitely. Should we try to take measures like this that will cause the country to lose business and subsequently cause many already low-income workers to lose their jobs? These measures hurt Bangladeshi citizens who are going to be on the streets without a place to work, but it helps us feel like we have taken the moral action. Sometimes the easy answer is not the right answer. "Are we helping them or purging our guilt?"
