These are just a few of the many that I feel are extremely relevant to my demographic of consumers. I own at least 1 of something from every one of these brands and I wasn't aware just how many companies actually made this list. Our entire retail market is dominated by sweatshop supporting companies, and I do agree that as consumers we aren't given many alternatives. I will go into more detail of particular headlining brands in following posts and I will admit that their is a small window of chance that few of these companies are either wrongfully accused or have since cleaned up their act, however I can confidently say that the largest brands listed here have the largest amount to hide.
