Sweatshops.

(toothpastefordinner.com^)










It is easy to say that I don't support sweatshops, for the obvious moral reasons, but then again the clothes that I am wearing today probably can be attributed to sweatshops. So even though I may not want to support them, I am by purchasing apparel that has been involved in making sweatshops successful. Luckily there are now emerging companies that refuse to use sweatshops to cut costs. Unfortunatley, there must be a downside- price. Most of these companies also support organic clothing, which is also expensive. Hopefully these companies will spark a bit of a revolution, and we will be able to keep children in other countries out of sweatshops at some point in the future.



It is sad that America has become so greedy. Retailers are only concerned with profit, and if Americans will pay ridiculous amounts of money for clothes that only takes companies cents to make overseas, then they're all for it. They don't even take into consideration that they are making 16 year old girls and younger work all day under harsh conditons such as heat, abuse, and no maternirty leaves.
