I recognize the hypocrisy in me when I express appreciation for access to—and buy—all sorts of foodstuff that comes from Asia, then object to trade agreements that negatively impact workers in the U.S. I wonder if others who share my hypocrisy recognize it. And I wonder if they rationalize the conflict, absolving themselves of blame for the hypocrisy they abhor in others.
If we were ethical, we’d walk the walk.
