When I read the article on the fire in Bangladesh, I was appalled. The injustice that subconsciously occurs in the United States is absurd. All we want is the "best deal" and "lowest price" when in reality, the workers are payed little to none for our "great deal". The fire spread because the proper fire equipment did not work and the people were told not to do anything about it. Seriously, the building is on fire and you want me to finish making this dress? The workers are treated like caged animals and are payed just enough to eat a meal maybe two.
I cannot imagine working for a dollar a day. These people deserve more as human beings. They all have dignity. The have the right as a human being to be treated fairly. It is sad to see that some companies and countries disagree. The injustice that occurs in the world saddens me every time I hear of it; praying is the only thing I can do right now. Hopefully, in the near future, I would like to be actively working towards stoping this injustice.
