Slavery in Modern Day Australia - Four Corners Investigation

SLAVING AWAY, reported by Caro Meldrum-Hanna and presented by Kerry O’Brien.
Slaving away: The dirty secrets behind Australia’s fresh food.

It’s in your fridge and on your table: the fresh food that we take for granted.

But there’s a dirty secret behind it.

Much of it is picked and packed by a hidden army of migrant workers who are ruthlessly exploited.

“There is slave labour in this country.” – Queensland grower

A Four Corners investigation has uncovered gangs of black market workers run by unscrupulous labour hire contractors operating on farms and in factories around the country.

The produce they supply ends up in our major supermarkets and fast food chains.

The situation is not much different in North America or the rest of Europe. We are literally consuming the labour of slaves and putting that slavery on our plates and ingesting it on a daily basis.

The old addage was “You are what you Eat” and what we are “eating” was picked, packed, processed by foreign migrant workers living and working under slave like conditions.

There is an universal law that Law of Karma that what we sow is what we reap. We exploit countless millions for our clothes, our chocolates, our bananas, our chickens, our shoes, our shrimp, our fruits and vegetables and we are all completely obviolous to it all.

But do not be deluded by this world as there is someone keeping track on all of our actions and there is a going to a day when we will all have to answer for our deeds. 

Just as Ignorance of the Law is no excuse when you are before the Judge. Ignorance of such practices will also not serve as an excuse on that day when we are all judged.

Either bring yourself to account now or face that accounting later. The former is a much better option in case you are still confused.
