Sweatshop Survey
Gender: Male Age: 25 1. Do you know that sweatshops are currently being used worldwide? Yes 2. Did you know that there are sweatshops located in the United States? Yes 3. Do you own anything from the following brands who use sweatshops? Old Navy 4. Did you know that the companies who make UCSD (all UC’s) school gear, Russel Athletics and Champion, own sweatshops? - NO 5. How does that make you feel? Sad 6. Will this make you more conscious about what you purchase? Hopefully 7. Any last comments? I had no idea Old Navy or many of those brands ran sweatshops. Sadly I bet people being informed of this will have very little effect on their sales. |

Gender: Male
Age: 27 1. Do you know that sweatshops are currently being used worldwide? Yes 2. Did you know that there are sweatshops located in the United States? No, but it does not surprise me 3. Do you own anything from the following brands who use sweatshops? Nike - Yes Phillips-Van Heusen - yes, but no recent purchases Disney - no Guess? - yes GAP - no Banana Republic - no Old Navy - yes (technically, answering yes to any one of the last 3 is a yes to them all) Tommy Hilfiger - no Reebok - yes Levi - yes Liz Clairborne - no Ralph Lauren - no Kohls - no 4. Did you know that the companies who make UCSD (all UC’s) school gear, Russel Athletics and Champion, own sweatshops? No 5. How does that make you feel? No change in my opinion, as there is no positive or negative impact on whether or not I would buy UC gear. 6. Will this make you more conscious about what you purchase? Honestly, not really 7. Any last comments? I am of the opinion that the sweatshops will continue as long as they continue to "work" the companies that use them. As long as such a thing is legal, unfortunately not much can or likely will be done about them, profitability on all ends is what keeps them moving. Yes, this is a sad revelation and a wholly ugly picture of humanity, but the fact remains in spite of this.

Umm.......to tell you the truth..not to surprised seeing as how most companies will do most anything to cut costs. But i do think its something that shouldnt be allowed to exist. 6. Will this make you more conscious about what you purchase? Probably not. I wish it would. But if i like something......then i like it. 7. Any last comments? Even though i purchase (Unknowingly until this point) from companies that have sweat shops and will probably continue to do so. I dont support it at all...and think it should be stopped.

Sweatshop Survey
Gender:male Age:23 1. Do you know that sweatshops are currently being used worldwide? Yes 2. Did you know that there are sweatshops located in the United States? Yes 3. Do you own anything from the following brands who use sweatshops? Nike -yes Phillips-Van Heusen-no Disney-no Guess?no GAP-yes Banana Republic-no Old Navy-no Tommy Hilfiger-yes Reebok-no Levi-yes Liz Clairborne-yes Ralph Lauren-yes Kohls-no 4. Did you know that the companies who make UCSD (all UC’s) school gear, Russel Athletics and Champion, own sweatshops? No 5. How does that make you feel? apparently it doesnt change anything about how i feel, the only way it would affect me emotionally. is if when i put the clothes on. does it boost or obstruct my present emotion. aka make me feel good when i step outside my front door. 6. Will this make you more conscious about what you purchase? fuck no, everything we've owned in this country was built of the backs from some sort of slave labor. 7. Any last comments? when i was living in long beach as a kid, my parents worked at a sweatshop. and so did i. seriously they were sewing and cutting garments for 15 cents a piece, and i had to cut the extra thread from the sewing machines when they were done. i got 5 cents a garment for it. i looked at it this way you gotta do what u gotta do to survive in a city where jobs arent there, where the language barrier is one of the main things my parents couldnt find a job that paid well. if you immigrated to a new country and had to do, put to food on the table and a roof over your head. why wouldnt you take the first occupation you could get. heres another way of looking at it if u didnt buy those clothes there would be even more homeless and starving people out in the world.. the only real problem i have about companies and sweat shops is the mark up on retail prices... they somehow work a deal to get their products made for cheap, and still sell them way above the cost to make it. if they really sold their products for what they cost i bet alot of those designer clothers would be under 20 bucks...
