But it sure does seem hard to go into any store and find something made in America. And whoever is making it in that foreign country is probably not being paid what they should. The workers don't necessarily have to be children or anything for it to a sweatshop. I understand Tripp is located in New York, but that doesn't necessarily mean the clothes are made their. Just as Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote "Sweet Home Alabama" even though they're from Jacksonville.
