This is a hold up

Taken at Easter, Betsy shows James to the camera. He doesn't understand what's going on, but yet, we persist is posing him ... all the time.

It still amazes me that an entire kid's outfit (sweater, shirt, and pants pictured here) only costs like $7.99. I think that the only way they can charge $7.99 and still make money is by using child labor.

Little Esmerelda or Xiang are slaving away making clothes they would love to be able to wear for 4 cents per hour while being verbally and physically abused to make more size 2 courderoys.

...and yet, you notice that I patronized the system. I guess I have hope that, somehow, I'm buying one of the outfits that is actually made by well-paid Americans and sold for a loss.
