Angelfire b?

 i always remember you as "that guy from the gm thread"

no hate tho. angelfire is a stupid name.

 

[memo]

I have not seen an angelfire in years. Lol

 

[metiqlous]

Haven't seen someone use Angelfire since middle school. The glory daze of animated flame text web pages.

 

[shinylikesyeezy]

i just found it on google. until then i haven't even heard of the damn site.

 

[joepac12]

It's messed up but for Nike it makes sense.

Had to do a project on this last year. 

 

[sea manup]

if they made shoes in the US gr lebrons would cost $500

They don't have to. Nike has tricked you into thinking fused plastic costs and arm and a leg and then they wrap the shoe in unnecessary carbon fiber.

i know how much it costs to make, at the end of the day nike is a company so i dont blame them for trying to make as much money as possible 

nothing wrong with finding the cheapest way to make their products, thats just smart business

 

[PRIME]

Damn. I haven't seen an angelfire site in almost a decade.

 

[ice city fc]

What always gets me about these birds is the fact that actually care more that Nike exploits these conditions than the fact that these conditions exist all over the world in the first place. Why is Nike the root of your concern and not the Vietnamese government or its economy?

 

[Based Jesus]

This has been going on for years with multiple corporations and the world has yet to end. So I guess it's not a "serious" issue.

Could Nike afford to pay them more? Yeah. Should they be paid more? Hell yeah.

Is it going to happen? Not as long as governments allow it to happen to their citizens.

Like ice city implied, Nike ain't the real problem here.

And at least Nike is bringing jobs into these areas. Better to make $1/hr than 0

And Phil Knight is definitely worth more than a measly $4mil. He runs a billion dollar enterprise

View media item 523568This country isn't centered around morals and humane standards, but it's centered around ego, capitalism and money. Not surprised that such practices still exist.

 

[gottabeem21]

are you serious?

NB are fine shoes made in America that cost less than most Nikes .. Just saying, it can happen but the profit margin will decrease significantly ...

I don't think that's something Nike or any other company wants to do.
