It is time that western companies take responsibility for management's abuse
of labor rights in countries they import from. What do you think?

Grim humor. Sometimes it's all I got.
Thank you for caring Steve. I wonder how much the average American consumer cares?
I been buying my clothes second hand. Sometimes I can find a shirt made by union labor

I wouldn't be at all suprised if Wal-Mart had a fire sale from Bangladesh. Yeah, sardonic humor is a way to fight the disaster toll. Thanks for the post, Still Trucking. I guess I'm
just a "bleeding heart" liberal.
Hey, I really feel for those folks families.
I remember reading about mill fires back early last century in this country. Even more recently, near Philadelphia, TN, there was a chemical factory explosion. So, it happens here in factories & on oil drilling platforms...

It is a rare occurence but it still happens.
