Most clothing nowadays is only so cheap because somewhere in the process people making it aren't paid enough to live on. If we're going to buy things that have been made in a way that everyone involved is paid a living wage (as they should be) then we all need to adjust our idea of what something should cost us- and probably change our spending habits too!

Now I understand the price is driven by supply and demand, but maybe it's time to start making these things more affordable so more people can actually buy them. I made the switch to organic food long time ago (Whole Paycheck Foods), but find it hard to pay $100 for organic t-shirt.
