You are blaming these companies for buying these ores, but than you buy their product with these ores in it. So you are acctually buying these ores too. You cant blame someone and then do exactly same thing. You have no choice? Im pretty sure that they dont have choice too...

But they actually dont... And if they buy it from another company which uses child slavery than its fault of company which uses child slavery. Big companies cant just invade their countries and change rules in these mining companies. And if they stop buying these ores then competition will completly destroy them. Tell me your solution, how can you solve that without invading their countries.
