What are we supporting ?


“Oh well this one shirt wont effect anything!” is what you probably say when your at a store like Abercrombie and really what does buying one shirt do? Although if you were to count all the times you have bought a shirt, sweater or jeans then add the number of times your friends have as well, you’ll be surprised. When you buy articles of clothing, especially excessive amounts your supporting the usage of sweatshops. If you chose to disagree just think… If more people were to stop buying from these clothing lines there would be no point in sweatshops since they’re used for profits. If there was not a lot of people buying, the company would be losing money because they would have to try to lower their rates to get people back in the stores.

  1. Ok, I've got to argue with you on one point-that we should stop buying their clothing. If you don't buy the clothes, then the workers will not be able to receive money (no matter how little it is). We should keep on buying their products, but maybe we could write letters to the companies.
