Fair Trade is it Fair? (Score: 1)

I can't help but feel that your complaining that fair trade is not 'fair'!

No it's not fair and that is the point. I see where you are going on the supermarkets cashing in on the market and I would expect no less from a money making organisation.

All I can say is that if you can find specifics e.g. how much of a cut each one takes and then tell me and others and let the facts out. We can then make more of an informed choice in our trade.

You did mention 'try and change their situation more permanently'. I am never quite sure whether or not we just want people to become more like ourselves or actually helping them. What are we helping them to? Middleclass peril?
