Merry Christmas, Love Wal-Mart

Another reason to hate this store.  Teenager whistle blowers exposed a Wal-Mart factory in Guangdong that employs children as young as 12 and forces them to work for 15 hours a day, 7 days a week, to make christmas ornaments.  Not only are they paid at half of China’s minimum wage (which is 26 cents/hour), but they are being exposed to chemicals which have caused rashes and sores and will likely cause them health problems in the future.

They’re so young- Walmart, where are your ethics?

NCL report here.
