I feel like we should buy less but not so much. If we stop buying them then the workers will have no job at all but if we buy too much they get overworked. The article made me think a lot about where my clothes are from, how they are made, and how much work actually goes into to making my clothes.

I think that buying clothes cheap is good for people that are poor but not for 10 year olds with no money or clothes in third world countries. Other countries are suffering and are only making $2-3 a day just by cutting there fingers and when the building collapsed on the workers. Lastly, I think if Americans can afford nicer clothes then they should buy quality over cheap quantity.

My position of cheap clothes is very important to me. I think that we should consider the way we are getting our clothes. We should not stop buying them because how else will we get clothes? If we stop the clothing industry will lower & lower, we should get better conditions for the people this make out clothes. This article made me think that I am very lucky to be where I am now and not have to suffer.

I believe there IS a real cost that the people making our clothes pay, that's a problem,
and it makes me appreciate my clothes even more. I think it is terrible what these children and women have to go through everyday at work. Where are we supposed to buy our clothes from then though if only 2% of the U.S.'s clothes are made in the U.S.? What if we stopped buying these clothes? The stores and companies would go out of business, the factories would shut down, and the employees would be out of jobs and not able to provide for their families.

I buy cheap clothes sometimes but mainly I get my clothes from Kohl's and they have good prices. We should not stop buying them because it preserves more expensive material for more important things. It does make me think about my clothes because I might reconsider buying clothes that I don't need.

I think that the cost of cheap clothes is a bad thing because instead of money being the real cost of the clothes it is people. Many people have died from making these clothes weather it be from health issues or from a falling building. There are horrible working conditions. I do not think we should stop buying them I just think that the owners of the company should think about their workers more than what goes in their pocket.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that we should stop buying these clothes because the people making these clothes are in bad conditions and are suffering.  I think if we do stop buying these clothes then the people suffering to make them won't have to suffer and have to work hard.  Yes, this article did make me think about were our clothes come from.  I didn't know that people were in bad conditions and didn't get paired a lot for making these clothes.

Cheap clothes may be good for us because we don't have to spend a fortune on what we wear. But cheap clothes are not a great things for the people who make them. Yes, they do have a job and are getting paid, but they aren't getting paid well and the conditions in their work place are terrible. Many of the people who make cheap clothes have gotten sick or died. And at what cost? Something that comes and goes in the fashion trends. Something we may throw away a couple months later after we buy it because it isn't interesting anymore. But sadly there isn't much that we, the buyers, can do about this. Not buying the clothes will not stop them from making the clothes. It's sad that people have to suffer just for our trends just because it's cheaper to make clothes in poorer countries.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that we shouldn't continue to buy them. I think this because if we stop buying them, it may help them think that maybe cheap fashion isn't safe for the environment, and that it isn't safe for people too. We shouldn't just be buying clothes which are priced higher than what they actually cost. This kind of makes me think about where our clothes came from because some places are in need of help.

# data[].attributes.body
My opinion on this is in the middle kinda this because it is bad on the labor conditions , and child labor. But the problem is clothes are a necessity in life and some stores charge way too much for clothes, So we lean towards clothes that are cheaper that we can afford. If we do continue nothing will change, but if we stop then there is a chance in will go on but if it does stop then there's the problem of the cost of clothes and etc. It does make me think and I know this may sound bad , but I can't take worrying every time I go to buy something if this effects the problem. This because it is hard enough to buy clothes already , So I don't want to make it worse and take more than a hour to buy clothes. Also I give old clothes to good will , So that get good use not causing pollution, But I see no way to stop the labor problems though. Also there is the question that even if the job is horrible what if the people over there can't afford to be able to lose it to support their families , So what happens when we take their one way of getting income from them and they can't survive. There is effects to good and bad that even if you try to do good it can effect others in a bad way. Things always come with consequences.

I don’t honestly know if we should or should not stop buying these cheap clothes. Their are some dangers for others, but what the article said was that we have improved our safety in the factory’s. It did make me think about where my clothes came from and how they were made. When I read the article it made me sad but it made me realize what these children and kids do for work. If we didn’t stop buying the clothes these people would be out of their jobs.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is really stupid that we pay a lot of money for clothes that are really, really cheap. I think that we should buy a less amount of clothes so people can save money. If we stopped buying clothes, then we would have saved money, but our old clothes would be worn out and tight so we can't wear them anymore. This article shocked me of how much clothes actually cost, and that we are spending a lot of money on cheap clothing.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that we should stop buying the clothing because if we do the companies will go out of business. The people who make them will lost their jobs and won't have money to buy food and the necessary things to live. This article definitely made me think about where the clothes I wear everyday come from. Before reading the article it didn't really come to mind that my clothes were made by children or women that were dying and sick because of making them. I had no idea that the clothing industry was polluting the world and causing people to die. I think that companies need to make major changes to the ways their employees are working and offer them more.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think we should stop buying the cheap clothes because they would not be able to stay in business.  If we don't buy the cheap clothes than the employees will most likely lose their jobs. This article does make me think about where my clothes came from because now I know what they go through to make these clothes. I think that many changes need to be made in the clothing industry, such as higher wages, and  better working conditions.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the cost of clothing is very high because people work in harsh and dangerous conditions and barely survive. I think we need clothing just the factory owners need to take care of there workers. I think the conditions now are better than they were many years ago but the could be better

# data[].attributes.body
We can still buy cheap clothes but I think we should reward the people who make them. We should give them better working spaces and better wages. If we don't buy them I think that maybe the people who make the clothes would run out of business with the clothes that aren't being bought. I usually think about where my clothes were made now. I also think that the person who made this could have been in a bad condition or just suffering from the bad working conditions.

# data[].attributes.body
I currently do not agree with the cost of cheap clothes because of  how people who are making these cheap clothes are being held in unexceptional work spaces for unreasonably low wages. It seems outrageous, and almost unbelievable. Although I do not agree with it I don't believe this reason will stop me and other people from buying cheap clothes, instead I believe we should just be more considerate and try to help those people instead of possibly putting them out of work if everyone protested buying what they were making. Yes, this article definitely did make me think about where my clothes came from.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the people reselling the clothes are reselling them for way to much. I do not think we should buy them because them. We would not have any clothes if we stop buying them. If we did keep buying them the price of the clothes would eventually go up. If we stop buying them then the price would eventually go down. This article did make me think about where my clothes came from. It made me think about the people who make my clothes.

# data[].attributes.body
My position in cheap clothes is very important to me. I believe that we should continue buying cheap clothes because there is no harm and who doesn't like something cheap. If we did not buy cheap clothes I think our lives wouldn't change but our personalities might. What I mean by this is because we would all not be wearing our usual casual clothes. I think this because now in 2017 we mostly wear casual clothes because they are comfortable, but if we where to buy all these fancy and out of fashion clothes we would change our tone. This article we read made me think about where our clothes come from because I never thought this is how they are made. It's hard to believe that the hard workers get paid so little but make Americans lives so much easier. This is what I think about cheap clothes.

# data[].attributes.body
I think we should buy them but not as much because they are bad for the environment. If we do keep buying them working conditions could get worse because they need more people. If we do not buy them then lots of people will be without a job. In this article it made me think about how kids would work in these factories and I could only imagine how hard it was for them. Also it made me think about how many clothes we throw away and how bad it is for the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think we should stop buying clothes from over seas. I don't think we should stop buying them because those people have free will and choosing to stay working at the factories where they make the clothes and they aren't leaving. I'm going to keep buying the clothes because it doesn't effect me of people have to go through to make the clothes. It doesn't effect me because those people are choosing to stay at the factories and not find a different job so therefore I don't feel bad for them.

# data[].attributes.body
Well, in my perspective we have to be open to both sides. If we stop buying clothes, those people making the clothes, won't get paid, and the companies who pay the people, won't get paid either, which is not necessarily good for anyone's cultural economy. Although if we keep buying these clothes, we are promoting the businesses to keep treating those people poorly. So I'm stuck in the middle, and I really don't know what we should do to help both sides out. It really made me think about where my clothes come from, and how others were treated because of the high clothing demand.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think we should stop buying them; maybe we can limit ourselves. If we stop buying cheap clothing, then eventually those big name brands will slowly close down, leaving their employees with no job. The way we manufacture these clothes does need to change and conditions in factories also need to change. This article did make me think about the way my clothes are made. It made me realize how much work goes into my clothes and what people have to go through just so I can get a shirt that's "cheap."

# data[].attributes.body
I think the producers of cheap clothing need better working conditions. No one wants to sit in a dark, hot and smelly room all day. I also think that the people that make cheap clothing need more days off, especially if they are becoming ill. Should we stop buying cheap clothing? I wouldn't think we have to because some people can't afford expensive clothing items. This article did not make me think about where my clothes are from.

# data[].attributes.body
We shouldn't stop buying cheap clothes. Cheap clothes is still wearable and beneficial. They benefit those who don't have a lot of money or just don't enjoy spending on designer clothes. Many people may mind cheap clothes ugly and cheap, but they are a big help to those who don't have that much money.

# data[].attributes.body
The cheap clothes we buy are very fashionable and stylish. People love them but they don’t know where they come from. I think that America should start making their own clothes again because we would have better working conditions. The third-world countries do not deserve to  be working in these factories. They should be working somewhere else safer.

# data[].attributes.body
I personally like cheap clothes: it’s cheap! I did previously know where my clothes come from and how they’re made, of course. As much as I do love my cheap clothes, what I don’t love is how it’s made. I’m definitely not on board with the way these factories in other countries treat their workers, and their conditions.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion it is a good and bad thing.
It might be good for us because you're saving money . it's bad for other people making the clothing  because they  are dying from health issues or from fire starting.some of the fabrics are also causing pollution and other things.Maybe it would be better if our clothes was just made in the USA because we should have better safety procedures.

The cheap trendy clothes we buy come with a big cost as women and children make them in cramped rooms and harsh conditions. They have to keep on working no matter what happens which is wrong and inhumane. But we can't stop buying from these stores because if we do then they will go out of business making these people from other countries lose their jobs. We can't do this because even though its harsh the small pay they make is what they depend on for their families and themselves. In conclusion, the cheap clothes we buy actually come with a huge cost.

# data[].attributes.body
I think people should stop buying clothes form these companies that are making these cheap clothing because the people actually making the materials are in harm.   The worker do not get good pay and are in factories that are not maintained and could cause harm to people.  If people don’t use these clothes companies they will hopefully make the working conditions better.  That is my opinion on the cheap clothes.

When I go to the store with my mom and I she looks at all the clothes for sale or the cheapest. She always looks at the clothes and when she sees a sweater that is $45 dollars she is shocked at how much the sweater cost. I think we should stop buying clothes but I don't want the people who make the clothes to loose their jobs. I also don't want them in the conditions that they are in. I know there are new rules and safety regulations, but all the chemicals and pesticides they are dealing with isn't healthy. Now when I look at all the clothing I have it makes me wonder the place where my clothes is and how much suffering they went to.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that we should keep buying cheap clothes because it'll boost up the money in the areas the clothes were made in. If we didn't buy these cheap clothes then everyone will lose money and we won't have any extra clothes. The article didn't really make me think about where my clothes came from. It'll help boost the economy up if we buy these clothes if we need them. Also if nothing sells in the clothes industry they'll lose money and their workers.

The human cost and environmental cost of cheap clothes is very bad. People are giving their lives just to make those clothes for random strangers that they probably don't know. When making polyster it releases dangerous chemicals and components in the air which may hurt people and animals. Yes, this article did make me think about where are clothes are from because it turns out that only 2 percent of our clothes are made here in the U.S.. I think that we shouldn't buy any more of those shirts because of the people that are making them and we should protect our environment.

I think that these cheap clothes are a bad thing because of what the real cost is not the actually cost. I think that it's terrible that these make their companies millions of dollars for making these clothes and yet they still are given terrible working conditions which some people die from every day or week and they are only paid about 3 dollars a day. The worst part about it is that most of the workers there are children and many of them die.

I won't stop buying the clothing mainly because one person isn't' going to make a difference at all, plus I get most of my clothes from hand-me-downs f of my two older brothers.

It did make me think about where my clothes came from and how terrible it is, but there really is no way to stop it

The way I see it, it can't be a win-win situation for both sides. If we stop buying inexpensive clothing merchandise, then most of the undeveloped countries that make OUR clothes, the clothing industry over there will be flushed down the drain. But, of course, if we continue to keep purchasing, then we will also be egging on the horrible conditions taking place around the world, so it's at this point that some of us do not know what to do. But me? I say that we stop purchasing inexpensive clothing. On a side note, I already knew where some of the clothing that I buy was made, but the article definitely helped!

The problem with cheap clothing is that companies don't want to be in the U.S because there is more incentives for them to stay in countries with less regulations. There as many problems involved in cheap clothing and no answer is perfect. Boycotting them would kind of work but then you lose the business and they sell their products in other countries. One of the many problems we have is a minimum wage which forces businesses to pay a certain amount which companies get by by cutting hours, then government puts more regulations then the companies. A minimum wage is anti-capitalist and goes against how our economy works. We should encourage nationalism not globalism. To sole these problems we need government to step back so companies have huge incentives to stay in the U.S preventing child labor and practically slavery. If we refuse to buy their clothes they might leave or come back. Buying cheap clothes doesn't help the situation either because the companies grow and more people become workers. It's a tricky situation going on.

The fast fashion clothes that we buy every day come with a big cost because of all the labor the people do to make the clothes and the type of conditions they have to deal with. I believe we can't stop buying the clothes because if we do the people that make the clothes won't get paid and then they will make them work even harder. This article did make me think where clothes people buy come from and what people do to make clothes for us.

I feel bad for the people who make these clothes in the terrible conditions. I want to stop buying cheap clothes, but there aren't many affordable alternatives.

Cheap clothes are very convenient and trendy. Giving up buying them would be a hassle, and so is finding clothes that are strictly made in America. We should stop buying them because it is supporting dangerous, hard jobs with low wages.

I think we should buy cheap clothes although the working conditions people are under making them, but we should also fight to a better right for these kids in these places to get more money for work if they should be working at all.

I usually do buy cheap clothes so my position in the "cheap clothes" article would most likely be the buyer. I think that we should try and lay off buying cheap clothes because they are harmful to people and the environment. This article did make me think about where I get my clothes because I shopped at most of the shops they had listed. It's kinda weird knowing that girls about my age are in the dangerous factory making clothing that I buy.

I think cheap clothes is something good for people who can't afford many things but also bad in a way because it is dangerous for the people making the cheap clothes. The working conditions that they have for making these cheap clothes are very dangerous, whether it's health issues or even safety issues. I'm not really against the whole thing because I understand that people can't afford the expensive clothes, but we also have to consider when buying these things that people go through many issues while making cheap clothes.

Yes, we should stop buying the clothing that causes people their lives, adds more pollution into the world, and overall is a bad choice. We should start making more clothing in the United States and have employees that aren't forced to work in these horrible conditions. We could have less selection of clothes if we start making more of our clothes in the United States. Yes, this article made me think of where my clothes are coming from because I wouldn't want my clothes to cost someone's life as well as the price tag the store puts on them.

I don't really have much of a position on the cost of cheap clothes. I am one of those people that go to thrift stores or antique shops a lot. I don't think we should stop buying cheap clothes because then prices who rise by a lot on nice clothes and underclass men could not afford nice clothes anymore. I think we all should start contributing by donations clothes and and money to the countries who have to make our clothes. And companies should start to make more clothing warehouses in the U.S. this article did make me think, because the people making our clothes get payed so little and the conditions are awful for them. I thought about how much better we have it and how under appreciated we are.

I think we should stop buying fast fashion because the people who make them are suffering for just clothes. I think that the U.S should start making clothes instead of having other people make them. Is it fair that the people, even little kids are making all kind of clothes for us and they don't even have a fair wage or even worse that they don't have clothes themselves.

I thought the article was very impactful.  I believe cheep clothes are convenient for us to buy but we never think about the cost it may have on others.  It would be best that we stop buying these cloths but we will not because we are not constantly reminded of the pain others go through to make these cloths.  It not a direct conflict for Americans we aren't affected negatively by cheep cloths daily.  If we stopped buying cheep cloths the people who own the companies will go bankrupt.  Our country would probably have to lower taxes to make our cloths more affordable in the US.

I think that cheap clothes are nice to have, but they are not very friendly to the earth. I think that we should all continue to buy these clothes,  but also we need to realize how our purchase of these clothes effect everyone around us.

Imagining teenagers my age making the clothes that I wear, is kind of a scary thing to think about, because I know if I was in their position, that it is not something I would willingly do

This article definitely made me think of where my clothing comes from and the cost it has on others.  My family is vey opposed to buying expensive clothing so I mostly shop at Walmart. It would definitely make things worst if they lowered prices because first of all the people would be paid very little and they are barely get paid. Lowering prices would make things worse.  If they did lower prices the workers should get higher pay.

The clothing production industry is very dangerous and has led to many injuries in the past, and, in certain cases, even death.  The conditions these workers go through are just terrible, and they don't even get paid well.  These people barely get enough money to buy one meal, so pretty much, if you miss a day of work, you don't eat.  I don't believe we need to stop buying these clothes, but we definitely should buy less, much less.

I don't believe we need to cut out cheap clothes completely but I think we need to make them more effectively. People around the world should not be getting hurt because us spoiled Americans want our clothes for cheaper. The adults and children working in the factory work so they can literally have enough money for one pair of clothes and hopefully some food, and we're still complaining about the cost of clothes. I think if we stop buying cheap clothes, Americans will be enraged, but lives in these other countries will be safer, people should not have to slave for us, so we can have cheaper clothing. This article definitely made me think about my clothing, and how much of it really is made in America.

I think it's nice to have clothes that are priced low. I think affordable clothes is what most people want. But I disagree with how the clothes are usually made. It is horrible to have people work in the conditions we read about in the article.

In my opinion, buying cheap clothes is cost effective and easy for those who buy them but very strenuous for those who produce them. I firmly think that we need to stop buying cheap clothes and purchase more local, U.S. made clothes. If we do so we will limit pollution of our world, grow the U.S. economy, and limit the number of fatalities while cheap clothing is produced because of more stringent regulations in the U.S. This article made my think about the clothes I wear because I now realize how much time and effort, also not to mention danger is put in the clothes I wear.

In my opinion fast fashion is a huge problem in America because we buy form countries far away that slave children in to making these clothes for us. Then after all their hard work making 3$ a day making 1000 articles of clothing 1 piece of clothes they made sells for more they make in a day. That is wrong to put young children through hard manual labor just to make a quick buck. In my opinion fast fashion shouldn't be a thing, but there's such a demand for clothing in America I don't think fast fashion is going to stop anytime soon.

I think that cheap clothes should still be bought and worn, but the clothing companies need to have better safety in their factories. If we don't by cheap clothes then the factories would stop and the businesses that sell the clothes would go down. Yes this article made me think about where the clothes were from and it made me sad to see how the people are working just to make clothes. They are not even getting a good amount of pay for it! I wish the companies that own the clothes can make the working conditions safer and not have kids work in the factories. Basically make the factories a safer environment.

In my opinion I
find it unfair and terrible how many families must endure working several working hours in enclosed areas with relinquished freedom, just to make our clothing. I mean sure it has to all come from somewhere but the way and order it comes is not right or just. People are not machines, they aren't built to do such hard labor and what's worse is they aren't paid enough money to do it. People work to gain money to support their families but how can they do that if they aren't even paid the minimum wage. In conclusion I believe that we should get clothes from any location but not under those types of conditions and within tolerable circumstances.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think we should stop buying these clothes because many people can't afford the high end clothing, that's why I think the cheap clothes should still be around. If we don't buy these clothes, many people around the world would lose their jobs because we stopped buying the clothes they make. This article definitely did make me think where my clothes came from because only two percent of our clothes come from the U.S. this made me think of all of the places my clothes could possibly come from if almost none of it comes from where I live.

I think that it is not right how much work people are doing for such little pay.  I think we should still buy cheap clothes because so many people do it it would be hard to get ride off, but I do think we have to change the conditions of factories.  Factories are pushing their workers way to hard for the amount of payment they get we must up the paychecks.  I also think we have to figure out the solution to all of the waste and materials being dumped by factories.  This article makes me think about how somewhere in the world people are working extremely for something that me might take for granted.

I think that we should stop buying cheap that are coming from other countries. There are no benefits to buying cheap clothing. Since it's basically promoting child labor and polluting the environment. I think if we stop buying them the companies will realize that we don't like where and how are clothes are being made. This article made me think a lot more about what I'm wearing everyday and how it needs to change

I think that they should raise the pay of the workers who make clothing for everyone around the world.  I think we should stop buying them so that they know that they should improve the conditions of the working people.  If people stop buying cheap clothes then the other people who make them will see that they are doing a bad thing and should at least have an air conditioner to keep the working men, women, or children alive.  This article mad me think that my clothes came from a factory that people work at all day with little to no pay or with terrible work conditions.

My position on the cheap cost is that it’s not alright that kids work in factory’s at the really low ages and get little to nothing money for making our clothes and to  us and if makes me feel like their are peasants but I don’t want to think that because they work so hard and  some people think their there peasants. We should try not to buy it so they can go out of businesses so the kids can go do something they want to do and not just work long hours.

My position on cheap clothes, that even though they are cheap, they are solid clothes to wear. I think in my opinion that we should keep buying them. If it’s one of the only ways people will get their wages, why not? If we did not buy cheap clothes, the company would not earn profit, which would also result where people start losing wages. Plus if we also stopped paying for cheap clothes, we would be paying for really expensive clothing. This made me think, I wonder why cheap clothes companies do not pay their workers enough when a lot of people are already buying a lot of what they care selling; especially when the price is great.

I think that the cost of cheap clothes is good and bad. Cheap clothes can be helpful because it is more cost efficient. I think that we should cut down on our purchases of cheap clothes because they are coming from places where we are unsure if the conditions are safe, and the process of making them is hurtful to the environment. An alternative to buying low quality but new cheap clothes is buying higher quality used clothes. There are many stores, such as Good Cents in Geneva, that will buy your used clothes from you and resell them to others cheaper then what you would buy low quality clothes. Many times, you can find unworn clothes with the tags still on them, because people buy things and then change their mind. This is a better alternative then throwing clothes away because it is reusing and repurposing them which is better for the environment.

I believe that we should still buy cheap clothing, but not at the volumes we are doing currently. In the article it states how the factories make thousands of clothing a day, and this number shows that the U.S is buying an absurd amount of clothing. I believe that we should not worry about trends and just be content with what we have, and only buy new clothes if we are almost grown out of everything. I don't usually buy many clothing, usually receiving if hand me downs from my cousin, but I think this would be the best option.

The cost of cheap clothes has many factors. On one side, the cost of cheap clothes should go up. This is so that the actual workers who are making them can receive more pay. Right now they are receiving about 1/3 of our minimum wage here in the United States. On another side, the cost of cheap clothes should go down. This is so that the consumers and distributors of these cheap clothes will be discouraged from buying from these poor working condition factories. Hopefully this would mean that working conditions would improve and the selling price would also go up. We should try to buy clothes that were mad in the United States so that we know that the working conditions that these clothes were made are standard. This article made me think more about buying domestically.

I believe that we should stop buying cheap clothes because of the many negative effects it has on the environment. If we stop buying cheap clothes, then the environment would improve substantially. This is because in producing these cheap clothes, we use up a lot of natural resources, which hurts the environment. This article does make me think of where my clothes come from because in reading this, I realized just how much damage we have on the environment while making these clothes.

I think that the way that cheap clothes are made is bad, but the only good that comes out of it is the fact that it cheaper to buy. I think we should try to stop buying cheap clothes because eventually it will tell the people in the market to stop producing them, which will possibly stop them from making people work in those bad conditions. The way that our clothes are made is terrible for those who had to work to make them. We think of our clothes as a simple item but we don't really see what is truly behind it all. I never really thought about where my clothes come from or how they are made, but this article really opened up my eyes on a new perspective.

This article definitely made me think more about what I buy. I am currently completely broke, so of course I would rather buy cheaper clothes, but then again I really don't need more clothes. The people making this clothing are treated awfully, barely paid, and have to stay in awful working conditions everyday; is that really worth a $10 shirt? I think we should reduce the amount of cheap clothing we buy. I know it would be very hard to completely stop buying cheap clothing and maybe even a little naive for me to say. Just easing up on the amount of clothes we buy might make a difference. If you do it for long enough and maybe convince other people to do it with you, you could start to make a big difference.

I personally believe that we shouldn't stop buying these clothes. If everyone stopped there would be a massive change and many companies would go out of business but that would never happen. It is up to the company to get the factories in other countries to improve conditions or move production to a more regulated country and it is our job to speak up and pressure these companies. These clothes are also the only way some people can dress because not everyone can afford expensive designer clothing. This article definitely made me think about where my clothes came from. I already knew about the main part of this but as the article dug deeper, I got more interested as to how these clothes came to be.

I feel that having cheap clothes widely available to us is great for U.S. Citizens, but can also take a toll on the people who are making them. For the people who really need cheap clothes because they can't get a job or simply can't afford them, cheap clothes should stay. As the article mentioned, I think the best thing we can do is really focus on the safety and wages of the people making the clothes in places like Bangladesh and China. The companies may lose some money, but they should be able to risk (compared to how much money these companies are worth) that small amount of money in order to possibly save human lives.

# data[].attributes.body
I have a sort of a middle opinion where each decision is a cause-effect situation. If we stop buying the clothes, then the workers in Bangladesh and China won't work as hard but will get put out of a job eventually which is bad, but if we continue buying clothes, then we force them to work harder and create more landfills which is still bad. I personally think we shouldn't buy as many clothes as we do today and discard less. I did start thinking about the people making our clothes because of all the work that goes into making one pair of jeans.

I think that we should stop buying cheap clothes whatsoever. Yes, fashion has become a very popular thing these last few years, and people think that finding cheap clothes is a very rare thing. However, hundreds of people have had to risk their lives just to satisfaction our needs. If we didn't buy as many clothes, then there wouldn't be as much of a demand for new clothes, meaning that there would need to be less labor, saving more lives. We should only buy clothes if we absolutely need more clothes. If you are not going to use a piece of clothing anymore, use the old cloth as a cleaning rag. This will help reduce the landfill of clothes across the world.

I think cheap clothes are a great thing to have and buy, but they are also bad because of how they are made. I think that cheap clothes should be made a different way, not including using children to make them. I think it would be good to stop buying cheap clothes, but you don’t necessarily have to. It would be better if we stopped because then all these poor people could finally live a life of freedom for once. If we keep on buying them, then things will remain the same or increase because of popularity. This article did make me think about where my clothes come from in a different way than what I originally thought. I thought that they might’ve just been made in a normal factory. Not one with all these hazards and limits on how long you can be gone. If you miss a day, then you’re fired? This just isn’t right.

# data[].attributes.body
Obviously, I love cheap clothes, because who doesn’t? However, I do not agree on the process in which they are made. These labor conditions are awful, and they absolutely should get paid more and work in better environments. This doesn’t mean though, that the price of clothes has to skyrocket. The profits made by the factories can be reduced and used to repair the buildings over time. The prices of clothes goes up to help pay for the salaries of the workers as well. This article made me think about the clothes I buy, and I was oblivious to the obvious. Clothes can’t be made cheaper with the same working conditions and pay.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that cheap clothes are something that we need to keep. However, if they need to become a little bit more expensive for safety to be increased, I would be fine with that. In order to continue to buy these articles I have to do my research, and see what company’s will take the extra step to improve working conditions. This story definitely made me think about the clothing industry. They only care about themselves and making a profit. The people who work in those factories are humans, not machines. They need breaks and days off to recover. They can’t just live off the bare minimum pay. Everyone needs some luxury’s

Although I enjoy buying cheap clothes, I find the process of making it absolutely terrible. The clothes that we wear on our backs is the same clothing that children and women are forced to slave over for countless hours for little pay. If at least half of our clothes were produced in the United States, we could avoid a lot of issues such as the collapse of the Bangladesh factory that happened by over filling the building with workers. I believe that we shouldn't stop buying it, but perhaps move the factories over to the United States where the workers can work in better conditions.

Cheap clothing is good for poor people who cannot afford name brands. However, the other country's workers that make the clothing are put under bad working conditions. Children are forced into labor at a young age because job wages are so low. Working conditions cause women sewing to continue work even if they are sick and can possibly even lead to death. These low wages and bad conditions are the cause of prices being so cheap in America. Families that can afford to buy other clothing should, but people who cannot should continue buying cheap clothing. Yes, I thought about how my clothes are made.

I believe that cheap clothing is a necessary evil in this world. As bad as it is for the environment and people having to make these clothes, this is their job. Even if it doesn't pay well, they'd be worse off without it, with at least a little bit of income they can scrape out a living which is better than nothing. While I believe it is our obligation being a more advanced country to try and the poorer countries on to our level, that doesn't mean we should stop buying the clothes from these countries, if we stopped all together then there would be more people in poverty and jobless than before.

My position on cheap clothes is that they are really not that amazing. Ya they are cheap and that's helpful when buying things, but I really don't buy clothes unless I know that these will be something I wear for a long time. Most clothes that are like that tend to be a little more expensive, but if you simply wear them enough, your saving a lot of money you would've spend buying new cheap clothes all the time. I think we should try to stop buying these kinds of clothes just because of how much it would help people, but everyone loves buying cheap clothes. This movement would be nearly impossible to pull off because everyone likes these clothes. Even if you did pull this off, this may hurt some people. A lot of businesses would go down, and factories workers would lose their jobs causing some major problems. But on the plus side, the environment would improve, and people wouldn't have to be in danger working. This article defiantly made me think about my clothes and where they are from.

I personally believe that we should raise the prices of cheap clothes. This is due to the minuscule wages that are being used by factories. If we raise the prices of clothes, less people will buy clothes frequently. The less clothes sold at low prices, the less people payed low wages. This article really opened my eyes to what is going on in the clothing industry, and makes me really ask. Why must we buy so much clothes?

# data[].attributes.body
The cost of cheap clothing is a horrible cost to pay.  I don't think we should stop buying the clothing, but I do think that the working conditions the people who make the clothes working should be better.  I also think the pay should be better.  If we stop buying these clothes, then certain clothing industries will loose large quantities of money.  The upfront article really made me think about the effort that goes into the clothes that people in the United States buy and wear.

All people should make the change to stop buying cheap clothing from companies who don't treat their workers like human beings. If we continue to buy clothes from these companies even more accidents and fatalities can occur since the workers do not have proper working conditions. Not only do these workers have terrible conditions, but they also only get $2-3 an hour. They even risk getting fired if they are sick or have to skip a day. This article really opened up my eyes to this crisis that is happening right in front of us. Most of the clothing I buy is from the companies that do not treat their workers with respect, and so in result this article made me not want to continue shopping at those stores.

I believe it is a necessity for people to be able to buy cheap clothes, although I would be more cautious with how many of said "cheap" clothes I buy. If I did not stop buying cheap clothes then I believe unfortunately companies would move to other developing countries with less safety precautions and sanctions so they could continue making massive amounts of clothes without worrying about safety for workers and paying them that much. Yes this article has made me think about how awful the work lives of these people must be. They work all day long making tons of clothing items for almost little to no cost whatsoever.

I think cheap clothes are a good thing. I feel like people should buy them ,but people buy a lot of them. People should buy these cheap clothes sparingly and not just buy a ton of clothes, wear them a few times, and then throw them out. That’s just wasteful. We should buy clothes that we know will last a long time. If we stop buying cheap clothes, those sweatshop workers will lose their jobs and it would be harder for them to live. I’m sure they would rather have a low pay job than no job at all. I definitely thought more about where my clothes come from and the real cost of them is, but I don’t think I’ll stop buying cheap clothes anytime soon.

Obviously all of us would love to have fashion at the fraction of the cost from other brands. It is necessary in this society to look well. However there is more going on to make the clothes cost cheap. In the countries that manufacture that clothes, they work long hours to fulfill the order for the fashion that is cheap. Child labor maybe involved which is bad. However, we should not stop buying these clothes. The people in third world countries have to make a living to survive somehow. If we stop buying clothes, then the people in other countries can't survive. However, if we do buy these clothes we also support the big corperation that sells these clothes. So now we are then at a stalemate. What I believe then, is to only buy cheap fashion if you really need to. This did make me second think about where the cheap fashion has come from.

Yes we should stop buying them but we won't. It is too far gone at this point. It is basically a lost cause. If we boycott Nike then where are we going to buy our shoes and clothes from. There is no alternatives. Even if someone made a USA clothing company and paid them good no one would buy from them because they are too expensive due to labor laws. This article did not make me think where my clothes come from. I know where they are coming from and yes it is sad but what am I going to do about it not wear my school uniform because it's made overseas. It would be nearly impossible for change. Even our school uses overseas workers for our uniforms and our homecoming shirts and stuff like that. If everyone just magically stopped buying stuff from Nike then I guess there would be another company to rise in the United States. There are so many company's though that use overseas workers that it is nearly impossible. There would also be many problems with the economy and inflation would probably  ensue.

I say we should not buy them because it would be a waste of money if you buy the clothes and then not end up wearing them very often. We can buy them if that is call you can afford but be careful of what you buy. This article definitely made me think about what clothes I buy on a every day basis. I will now be more careful of the things I buy.
