People pay good money to help level up their characters, gold farm and do all of the other boring and hard things that get in the way of gaming. And even though people who do those jobs are still playing a video game, are they not still in sweatshops with poor to no rights?

Marginally Geeky ShowEp 18 - How Star Wars Conquered the UniverseIn 1977 a little known movie, Star Wars, would go on to change the world of science fiction movies forever. But it didn't stop there. It changed how toys were licensed for movies; how everything was licensed for movies.
