On Friday, I bought American Apparel underwear made by people paid a living wage and benefits, in decent working conditions. By contrast, there have been scandals in which big stores sell clothing cheaply, made in Asian sweatshops, some made by children.
You may have a tight budget, unable to afford extra money for your clothing. But if possible, please don't buy products made at the cost of human dignity. We all condemn sweatshops and child labor, but we speak loudest when we speak with our money.
