Just saw the death toll is up to 1,127.

How many American lives does that equal? We're talking muslims here. And is it an acceptable loss in return for all the awesome dirt cheap garments they make for us?

It's the world they had until the benevolent unions and government regulators stepped in to save the country.

Sadly, this is 1 of many factories that produces for American companies like Wal-Mart.

They DIED so you could have cheap clothes at Walmart.



Just last year, Walmart, The Gap, H&M etc REJECTED more oversight and a safety board.

I doubt all of your clothes are ethically manufactured.

I agree - this has really brought home the fact that one has to pay attention.


I wish we had our textile industry here still.

Just pointing out the hypocrisy in your statement to TXProFlowersGrizFan.

Where is the hypocrisy? I don't think that word means what you think it does. Hypocrisy would be going out and buying some Bengali undies today.
I have already said that I have to do a better job in vetting my purchases. China is well up the scale from Bangladesh.

I also said I wish there were more clothes, etc made in the US.

Did I say that? No. I said I don't shop at those specific stores Jon mentioned. Period.

I wasn't talking to you. Jon got on a high horse.

The hypocrisy was in the implication of your, "you don't wear clothes" comment as if all of your clothing and home goods are ethically sourced.

John's right, this should at least make us pause and think about the ramifications of "free trade" and the moral, environmental, and long-term economic implications.

In other words...freedom and cheap shoes are really nice as long as I'm free and the consequences don't affect me.

In other words...WKOSSWJR?

(what kind of sweat shop would jebus run?)

Very good. My wife is finishing up her masters this week and her thesis was sustainable manufacturing. It's amazing what we can recycle. For instance, there are companies that turn PET bottles and the class from TV screens into shoes. Using organic fabrics and natural dyes help save the environment from pollution. It's pretty incredible.

They look like Obama predator victims.

And you elected him.

Shame on you.
