My mother told me that she read a book which called "The Secret History of the American Empire" by John Perkins. I am surprised to learn that Nike Company that makes and sells its shoes around the world. An owner is extremely wealthy. He pays a small 1/4 factor of money to workers in Indian. The Indian children and adults made the shoes for us in America. We should be shame for that.

It is a well-known for a biggest government corrupt in Indian for not helping poor people to get back their feet in a normal life. We really need to stop buying the Nike shoes no matter what.

Please read the book. You borrow the book from your public library. It is really a good book.
 
It's for that very reason I support NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) and CAFTA (Central America Free Trade Agreement), as well as free trade and fair trade for all. I have a major problem when little kids are making items to sell and they get less than pennies on the dollar, while we have to pay "how much?" for that item here. Nike has also been paying various sports players for their endorsements and, as far as I'm concerned, those people should be ashamed of themselves, as well as people buying those products. This is what's called "Legalized Slavery," no matter if it's actually legal or not, no matter what country it occurs in.
 
Good I know my sense I never wear Nike since. I have seen many people wear Nikes. I don't feel comfort to know that.
 
Wow. Even in this day and world, we still are greedy when it comes to money.

I never owned any Nike in my whole life. Seriously. All I wear is the cheap shoes crap. :)
 
I think I should inform my son... He love to wear Nike clothes and shoes... :eek3:

Have you heard about "Southpole" designer clothes and shoes? What about them?
 
we need to find shoes that are made in USA then we can wear them? I do own a pair of Nike and I didnt know it was made by indian people? I felt sick. I have always bought Nike and New Balance shoes as they are good shoes and last longer compare to shitty and cheaper shoes. Thank you for letting me know about this. :(

This has been known for decades, Freaky Cat, it's not a secret if you've watched the news or looked at the tags on the shoes to see where it's made and add one and one together.
