CHILD LABOR IN THE UNITED STATES

We did away with this for our own people. So why are we willing to buy products from countries that have children working like this? IS IT A BLATANT CASE OF "OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND?" This is one of many reasons why you don't need to declare a boycott. You just have to stop buying foreign products that use sweat shops, child labor, etc... And you have to substitute MADE IN THE USA with UNITED STATES RESOURCES!
