    CBS News investigation has found child labor being used in the dangerous mining of cobalt in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The mineral cobalt is used in virtually all batteries in common devices, including cellphones, laptops and even electric vehicles http://cbsn.ws/2H6v3Ev pic.twitter.com/mCA5LTkoyR

        The big question we should be asking ourselves is: Who benefits from this situation?

        It’s nice that CBS makes America aware that child labor is used but not all countries can feed their children unless they are working

        The real problem is these people need work to make any money they can and if they don’t work they starve and in some cases they starve even if they work

        The real problem is that the world has often looked the other way while the DRC regime has stolen all the profits rather than investing in infrastructure and education

        This is why we shouldn't shut down mines in the US. We have labor standards that other countries don't.

        Why didn't you go sooner? Too busy trying to destroy your own country, that's why. This is ridiculous. Why no interview with those tech companies?
