There's knock offs and there's KNOCK OFF'S!

Folks, there are cheap knock offs and CHEAP, low down dirty trick abusive type knock offs when it comes to products made in third world countries. Many companies that use off shored labor to construct their products use some of the best materials available. So while the latest fashion may come out of a sweat shop in some third world country, at least you know that materials being used are of good quality.

Of course, the people actually doing the work could be working for less than 5 dollars a day. Or about enough to buy their meals only, just so the industrialized west can pay exorbitant amounts for the results of their labors. Now PLEASE don't give me the competition is good for everyone garbage or that they actually do better by taking slave wages. ok, maybe they have few other options but does that mean that the international corporations with their big deal salaries to their upper management need to push wages to their lowest common amount? Do you know that there are whole factories of people slaving away at building shoes for a well known sporting goods company? Do you know that this well known sporting goods company pays their well known basketball player spokesperson MORE MONEY THAN ALL THE PEOPLE THAT MAKE THE PRODUCTS FOR A YEAR!

So we as consumers get taken as those same shoes delivered to the dock in LA cost about 12 bucks. We whoever, get to pay 100-150 dollars for those same 12 dollar shoes! All the while the people who did the work are starving.

Will someone who so loves the free market society so much, try to justify this type of robbery and abuse of people. It may be legal but it's immoral.
