If you're suggesting the US is because of their reciprocal financial relationship, I reject that idea.

Say two companies have a partnership (you give me lumber, I'll give you transportation or some such). Are you then going to suggest that the Lumber Company is responsible for the way that the Transportation Company treats its employees?

And finally, to some extent the employees are responsible for working for a company that mistreats them. They certainly shouldn't be blaming the Lumber Company when the Transportation Company (I should have said Oil Company, shouldn't I? OH well ;-) pays them low wages and won't allow them to unionise.
