> 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.

Also, those interested in an unconventional (and accurate, I think) take on the "sweatshop" issue might want to take a look at economist Walter Williams' column on the subject. The link is below.
