Poor Kids In India? Sewing Clothing?
I have recently read an article in this one magazine and it said that they want to stop child labor in India. They say they are also sewing clothing for designer brands like Gap. They said that Gap was forced to withdraw a clothing chain of a line of embroidered blouses that were stitched by the children. I do not want to know if that is true or not because I know it is. They also say that they charge like $29.95 for shirts here and the nickel goes to the poor children here. I also noticed that Hollister and Abercrombie are made in Indonesia, Cambodia, India, and Guatemala. Are other poor children stitching the clothing and only get a nickel? Is a nickel worth more it these countries? I also think Hollister and Abercrombie clothing here should be made by fashion designers in the U.S.A. Does even one person think Hollister and Abercrombie are expencive?
Thank you
I know I stopped shopping there because of this
They should be paid $100 a week for making clothing! I am going to stop shopping at those places! and it is about time we save money!
