I bet the black people in Angola are really happy about the pink diamond. What a lucky break for all of them. So happy for them.

And while businessmen will make millions off of this, the people who actually worked to mine it will probably never see a cent of the profits. Hell, they'll never even get a raise

I hear the workers usually get a week or so paid off with such a find. Not theirs to own anyways and they get paid pretty well compared to the average salary in nation because it is dangerous work. Usually a cut of the profit is taken by the government as well.
