Bloody Valentine (The Underbelly of the Valentine Industry)

It’s Valentine’s Day! Chocolate flowers and perhaps diamonds, how can these gifts that bring much happiness can come from so much pain. Those beautiful flowers you may get, they could have been genetically engineered, grown in Columbia in a giant pesticide soak factory ran by US own corporation or how about those chocolate, sweet and delightful like a gift from the gods is not so innocent either. 40% of the world cocoa comes from the Ivory Coast of West Africa where child labor and child slavery is widespread and the diamonds? A girls best friend, they could might have been used to finance some of the most brutal war in the last decade.
