You aren't going to convince many people to buy that, "slave like conditions" or not.
I personally would rather pay an extra few bucks for a product if it meant keeping manufacturing jobs in north america, if we keep allowing American/Canadian company's to use cheap labor in manufacturing it won't be long before every major city looks like Detroit.

I'm all for free trade but only with countries with a close to level field. 20% of Canadian auto workers have lost there jobs to mexican workers making under $3 per hour(far from level field), and as the union contracts come up a lot more will follow.

BTW, he's right about the hoodie, I have 2 of them
