Anyway, getting to the point, before I got interested in all this I bought an Old Navy vest ignorant of the fact that GAP owns Old Navy. So, now I have this old navy vest hanging my closet and I have no idea what to do with it, I bought it at a used clothing store that gives no refunds.

How do you come across this information? Do you have a reliable source for these factoids about sweatshops and the GAP and Nike and such? The whole thing, especially about giving up religion and love, sounds completely ludicrous to me. I'd like to see some verifiable confirmation or refutation on it.
