Who exatcly allows the e-waste into the poor countries who recieve it?

Who are the ones who light it on fire for the metals inside? Can’t they break the stuff open with a rock or something? Stack it up neatly when they are done? Who is really exploiting these people? Why doesn’t someone show them how to re-mold plastic and build things of it; and tells them how much their boss is really getting for the copper/gold/platinum etc ?

no efficiency; just greed, blame, and more waste !!
People compete to get e waste; even in America !! I take a lot of things apart to skeleton when I have time; lot of useful things there!!
