Clothing has long been one of America's most popular budget spending items. Unfortunately, much of these garments are produced overseas in countries like Bangladesh, Myanmar, India, and China- where labor is often much cheaper than in developed countries like the United States.

In this episode I review America's dependence on the import apparel market and the global effect it has on wages for workers in poor areas of the world.
