aug 7, 1989 - Nike Sweatshops
Description:
Nike has factories in Vietnam, Pakistan, and other similar countries that abuse their workers by underpaying them, over working them, and keeping the workplace unsanitary. Some of the factories even have minors working for less than a dollar a day. This is a continuation of the issues seen as early as the First Industrial Revolution (and debately earlier, as it was similar to slavery).
