" John F. Kennedy. I think our great president point out an important ideal that people should think about it. In Africa, families received desperate needed money from the 'broker', and they had convinced themselves and their neighbors that it was all for the best, all part of the faint hope that their kids were going off to work and would prosper and one day return to share the fruits of their good fortune. How could parents admit that, in reality, they were selling their children into a modern in form of slavery?" (Off 154). .
Poverty lead human to their devastation, just like how the African parents don't have enough money to survive, any idea of making money is their ray of hope through the darkness so they consider that to be a fortune which can help them survive longer and their children also have work so they can live without starved to death. It is not really their parents fault, we have to look at is in different aspect. These "brokers" take advantage of human needed to constrain the African's people and make them become chocolate factory's slaves. Just like how: "[t]he report said most of the children toiled under supervision of their families and relatives, making them ineligible for the labor or slavery category since this work fell into category of family 'chores'. But it also conclude that 12,000 of the children were working on farms where they seem to have no family and that about 2,500 may have been smuggled into the country for the purposes of working on these farms" (Off 153). .
Consequently, these chocolate factories hired the "broker", and "broker" try to take away the children from their parents and make them slave by all mean. Economic condition in Africa spiraled down in the post- Second World War period as the empires channeled all resource into rebuilding their own countries. Broker, in London and New York, had perfected their techniques for manipulating supply and demand.
