Seems pretty obvious. Companies get around labour rights and human rights in North America by going to places where those rights dont' exist. If you're hurt here, or die on the job, you're entitled to compensation. You're also protected from wrongful firing, like your boss hitting on you and then canning you. In fact, there are hundreds of little 'socialist benefits' that all of you (in N. America) are taking advantage of right now, whether you like it (or know it) or not.

Who said any different?

I suppose if you think you're entitled to these benefits and protections, and other peoples in other places aren't, then there's no conscience issue here. For you
That's a heck of a leap in logic from what I actually posted....but i expect no less.

Now back to what i said...how does boycotting these companies that use sweatshop labor....help the sweatshop laborer?

Putting his employer (as heinous as he may be) out of business helps them how?
