Sweatshops and USA labor
The impact of sweatshops on labor in our country is heavy. There are less jobs in manufacturing and production sectors because these jobs are outsourced to third world nations where labor is cheap and abundant. There's certainly abundant labor here but companies would have to pay people more and they're not down for that because they're some greedy muthasuckaz, so they post up their factories in places where people will work for less than $1 USD an hour. The discrepancy in value of money between countries contributes greatly to this issue. There ought to be a standardization of value for trading goods. Workers in China have as much value as workers in America, they should be paid equally.

I like the passion for the argument. I do not agree completely with you on "workers in China should be pay as much as workers in America". Personally I don't think the sweatshop pay is fair but in reality sweatshop workers can't get paid as much as a U.S worker because businesses that are outsourcing will not let it happen. The reason why company outsource s to gain a higher profit. I do think and strongly suggest the pay for these sweatshop workers should increase.
ReplyDeletei agree with you that those workers in china deserve equal pay to us her especially because of the stuff they have to go through and since they do most of the work to make OUR goods anyways...almost makes us look lazy and greedy...haha
