America the Consumerist; Who is really making the luxuries we buy?

YouTube: Something To Hide
American super stores are hiding the real labor that goes into making the materials consumerist buy. The truth is this; every toy and piece of clothing parents buy for their children, every materialistic thing a house contains, and most everything you see that is not made in America is probably being made in a sweatshop in another country by the hands of a child.

YouTube; Something to Hide is one of many videos trying to exploit this truth and get consumerist to realize we can stop this. We don't have to throw luxery out the window, but we should watch ourselves to make sure we are not buying irrelevant, useless, expensive things no one really needs.
