Recently I was talking with my aunt about the April 24 textile factory collapse in Bangladesh that killed 1,127 workers. I was surprised when my aunt told me she was boycotting clothes from Walmart in solidarity with the factory victims. Sure, I told her, Walmart's goods are undoubtedly sourced from factories with poor working conditions, and Walmart stores themselves probably maintain some of the worst working conditions in the States, but you think Walmart is the only store you shop at with fishy product origins? Think again.
