You know what I do for a living! And I certainly cannot make winter hats & clothing for China child/slave labor costs. So this little shop is barely staying alive. Barely.
You have good idea but I don't know if tribe will allow it. Hope you are well down there! |

Guilty as charged.
The Allman Brothers Band has a song "The High Cost Of Low Living" which just might be an anthem for Walmart. |

I stopped shopping at walmart about 4 - 5 years ago... probably more... because of the hiring practices... and because of the way the 'low' cost is obtained...

We can live and dream with love and compassion in our hearts. I am shocked to know that so many people world wide are suffering still to this day. I saw their suffering in the eyes of beautiful young people who are stuck in company sweat houses and shops ( I mean they have no choice but to live in these conditions). Still so many suffering in our beautiful world! thanks family )'( Tribal family of artists. Let us give thanks for our freedom of expression and our choice to live how we want. We are so BLESSED )"(

I thought about this last year. I saw the documentary before BM, although I do not shop there anyway--but LOTS of folkls do. Thank you for posting this==we should BOYCOTT this company!! They are an EVIL entity and do not deserve money from the likes of us.
