About this Quote

This quote by Cory Doctorow paints a brilliant picture of the severe truth of kid labor. It speaks of little women who are forced to work in sweatshops, investing their days doing laborious and repetitive tasks such as making t-shirts. These t-shirts are then offered on eBay for a revenue, with the cash being transformed into gold. This quote highlights the exploitation of kids in the international economy, and the requirement for higher regulation and enforcement of labor laws to secure susceptible kids from exploitation. It also acts as a pointer of the importance of ethical consumerism, and the requirement to support businesses that do not exploit children in their production procedures. Ultimately, this quote functions as a call to action to ensure that all children are safeguarded from exploitation and are offered the opportunity to reach their full capacity.
