You might want to read the longer posts... All_Nite_Dinah's case wasn't just against capitalism as an economic system, but all the assumptions and the "western" mindset that come with it.
Also, I'm more or less on your side, but about the whole "sweatshop" issue, the issue isn't really that these people don't want to be working that much (hypothetically nobody is forcing them to work,) but the simple fact that they are being exploited... that they could be paid a lot more for the work that they do but they are not because corporations don't need to pay them more. Just because they're oblivious to the fact that they're being exploited, and that their meager wages are enough to cover their basic survival needs, doesn't mean that it's necessarily justified.
