Because people want to go to their local discount chain store and not pay very much for clothing. There's no thought into where that t-shirt came from or who made it. Only the price tag is looked at. The days of "Always look for the union label" and the International Ladies' Garment Worker Union are long gone, sadly. Not many people will pay $30 or even $300 for a well-made shirt from a US factory (if you can find one) that pays decent wages. They want the $3 imported t-shirt, underwear, socks, whatever. That drives the market for cheaper goods, and thinner material is what you end up with. This problem has plagued the garment industry for decades! The way to stop it is to stop buying cheap imported clothes, but right now, good luck trying to do that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-63564728231809303672018-09-01T12:42:06.328-05:002018-09-01T12:42:06.328-05:00The only person who brought up "race" wa...The only person who brought up "race" was you, 9:55.

My husband engages in a couple of activities I have no real interest in. He likes me to go with him and I'm rewarded by seeing him happy and having a good time. It would be miserable for us both if I didn't take a polite interest in what he's doing at the activity. He returns the favor by doing a couple of things with me that he would never do on his own.

Kendra clearly enjoyed it, so IMO he did the right thing by engaging in the activity with her.
