according to some sources, speedo (or companies hired to produce products for speedo) is guilty of serious abuse of its employees. follow the link. www.nlcnet.org/reports.php something to think about as we watch those lzr clad titans breaking records. do we care? should we (usms and usa swimming) act? makes me wonder...........how 'bout you?

    There is almost no product available that is not made in a terrible situation right now. It is not just clothing. Many of the products we purchase in our grocery stores are packaged in horrible conditions. Did you know th at When Pres. Clinton was the gov of Arkansas, Tyson Foods got special exemptions so that women stood in cold water while they were cutting and packing chickensome argue that we couldn't afford to live our daily lives if it weren't for horrible work conditions. Somewhat off of th esubject, a great new book by Rav Patel, I might have the words in the wrong order. Stuffed and Starved. It is about th echoices or lack there of concernign the foods we eat and how they effect the world we live in.
