Well, show me a single system (currently implemented, not ideal or imaginary) that isn't exploiting goods and labor from the third world.
Yeah that's kind of the point of systemic critiques buddy.
And that's why I'm saying social democracy is a realistic solution. The way the world works right now makes breaking this dependency something idealistic. So you can either fantasize with ideals all day long or you can get closer to your objective.
