Big Elbow (Unedited Release)

"We are the users and abusers of humans for our own advancement. This has never changed."

Jimmy Carrick

There are sweat shops around the world where people are forced to work in incredibly difficult conditions. Most of us only hear about it when companies are called out and publicly humiliated. Or maybe a worker finds a way to send out a message from inside a factory to the world.

Unless a person goes out of their way to find out why the clothes they just purchased were so inexpensive then the people working in forced labor conditions will continue suffer. Profits will be made and a life of involuntary servitude will be a trap that few escape. This happens everywhere in the world, but is most prevalent in Asia where almost 12 million souls are enslaved.

Just knowing there are so many trapped people drives the group known as the People to research and liberate many caught in the net of the human traffickers. Once it is determined forced labor is used, pressure is placed on the buyers of the merchandise to sever ties or be called out as users of humans.

When that is not enough, scouting missions to the remote factories involved are carried out.

Typically the Owners of these sweat shops begin with one factory and when profits grow they open more factories close by. The rules are harsh. Food, clothing and housing are extremely expensive for the workers and living conditions are brutal.
