Daslu: Luxury, Consumption & Ethics

I found this topic interesting, but in all honesty i feel it represents everything that is disappointing about humanity. I am impressed with the creators vision and ability to create such an empire, but at the same time the reality of this emporium is far less impressive. Sao Paolo is a society which has one of the largest extreme differences between rich an poor, and i feel that this is a completely arrogant and unethical place to begin such as empire. It is also sad how people from other cultures will accept the notion of being helicoptered in (clearly so they arent exposed to the REAL Sao Paolo) and just pretend they are in a whole new world as such. If there was proof of some kind of benefit for the poor in Sao Paolo then this may change my point of view slightly, however there seems to be cno proof of this at this time. Thats what i think.
