answer:Great question. Thanks for bringing it up. I’ve been wondering the same myself. Those incidents are horrific. We are not used to thinking about shit like that in the First World anymore. That is the face of “free trade.” I’m going to keep shopping at thrift stores, and try to mend my clothes myself or pay tailors to do so. I’m not sure what to do about socks and underwear, though. That stuff all seems to be made in Bangladesh, Thailand, India, Pakistan, or Vietnam…
