Lung Fa Tung is not only the largest insane asylum in Taiwan, it is also the largest chicken farm on the island, owning one million chickens. As part of their daily chore, patients sweep up the chicken excrement. - Magnum
Is child labour the lesser of two evils?

Arise, you prisoners of starvation
Arise, you wretched of the earth
For justice thunders condemnation:
A better world’s in birth.
No more tradition’s chains shall bind us,
Arise you slaves, no more in thrall.
The earth shall rise on new foundations:
We have been nought, we shall be all.
Happy May Day
It’s the best of all possible worlds, if you own the means of production.
