Letters: Sweatshop scandals
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Apart from slavery, and people having to sell their own kidneys in order to survive, capitalism cannot sink any lower than exploiting women and children in sweatshops to indulge the over rich who have nothing better to do than spend their time and money chasing fashion.
We avoid acknowledging we live in the midst of iniquity worse than Sodom and Gomorrah by pushing the bits we do not wish to see away into the global marketplace.
When are going to decide that capitalism has many unacceptable faces and put people before money?
