@spursfan112 Knowledge pays the most. It would make no sense for labor jobs to be paid better than those that require more intellect, otherwise everyone would care less about educating themselves. Anyone with half a brain can do physical work, but the same is not true for jobs that require more thought.

I see this as a multifold problem. If they were paid say $2 a hour, the shoes would be much higher, then affording them is impossible for some people. Thus, you reduce the need and thus reduce the work force. Thus more unemployed and they die.

Don't think it's just Nike? Most American based manufacturing companies are shipping production facilities to 3rd world countries.

Thanks for not answering my legitimate question.
Rather than ignorantly going "Well, Nike is really improving their lives" I decided to try to see if someone could tell me what the alternative is, I wasn't even defending it, but waitta ignore what I asked and just go into argument mode.
And I imagine if you talked to someone who had worked in a nike sweatshop and as a sex slave, they'd tell you that comparison is ridiculous.

Thi is why I hate capitalism. Some idiot comes up with an idea and he makes millions if he just sits on his stupid arrogant ass all day, while people that do all the work for the buisnessman get paid shit

@heatbucspies55 Exploitation is taking advantage of people, it's unethical, it doesn't have to be forced. You can use your argument for child sex slaves, saying hey "Their pimping out this 15 year old girl, but if it wasn't for them she would be starving". Nike is exploiting the people and land, there is no excuse or justification.

I'm asking this because I'm seriously curious, but what would these people's lives be like if Nike didn't exist and there was no sweatshop?
If the people who care about this stuff weren't normally such pacifists this shit would be ended by now, because the people responsible would be long dead.
