nein. I want it locked because it is random bitching.

Are you aware that outsourcing shoe building lowers our cost of shoes and provides the country of people with a job to feed their families with???

thats why they live in mud shacks, eat from landfill's. The point is pay them a bit more, something more livable then 10cents a day and using forced child labor. Don't you get it ? The company can affrod to pay these people something livable but it doesn't. 90 of sweatshops like those in SA provide unlivable wages. Less then a lot of local jobs which are scarse to begin with. is it so hard to conceive paying these people more ? Give them the right to form a union ?. Do you know how much money companies make off of those shoes ? there is a huge profit on them.

I told you it wasn't all fun and games. These children would be starving or not a have any form of income in the first place. They would be farming or doing some sort of other job. They saw these jobs as more fit for them than anything that was available. They weren't forced by police or the government to work their, they were forced by their countries poor economy and their need to survive.[/quote:b6a2b]

they do starve to death every day on these incomes. The fact is they can be paid more and they are not just for the almighty purpose of profit. +i dont know about you but I would like to see kids doing something else then sew a shoe together for my foot.

or they could stop paying athletes for multi-million $ endorsments.
I don't know about the rest of this forum, but I buy a particular brand of shoes because of comfort, quality, and relative price; not because Michael Jordan told me to.

I fund raised almost 300 dollers for the nicaurgaun trip that students in our school went on. The north south awareness program. I can't go becasue of football , but i raised some money for the people going to help build wells and such down there, good friend of mine Jacob Pilon is going down for his 4th year. Have some compasion. People are dieing and all you can say is i dont give a fuck. disgusting.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with Levenstein;
we can't do shit about the problem arguing on a forum for a 2 year old game oOo:

If you want to make a difference boycott Nike.

Personally I don't buy any of their shit anyway, just because I think they put too much money into athlete endorsements and not enough into quality, that and their commericals annoy the crap out of me.

OPEN your eyes faggit canadian sweatshops/companies aint much better on that subject, they exploit those same people the same.

oh and p.s GET A LIFE.

hence the funding of the NOrth South Awareness program. made a little diffrence. Did what I could.
