:20:00
you cant walk up in
a factory with your notebook

:20:02
and workers come
up and interview them.

:20:04
I mean there's
goons there’s spies

:20:05
the military police
:20:06
so you do everything
in a clandestine manner.

:20:09
We are about
to start the meeting

:20:10
and in walk three guys
:20:12
very tough looking guys.
:20:14
The company had found
out about our meeting

:20:16
and sent these spies.
:20:17
Obviously we didn’t
have the meeting.

:20:19
But these young girls
were really bright

:20:21
And as they
were leaving

:20:23
away from the eyesight
of the spies

:20:24
they started to put their hands
underneath the table.

:20:26
And I put my hand
under there

:20:28
and they put into my hand
their pay stubs.

:20:30
So wed know
who they were

:20:34
what they were paid
:20:35
and the labels that
they made in the factory

:20:37
so wed know who
they worked for.

:20:39
So I took my hand
after everyone had left.

:20:41
And in the palm
of my hand

:20:43
was the face was of
Kathy Lee Gifford

:20:45
And on the bottom
of it was

:20:47
A portion of the proceeds
from the sale of this garment

:20:50
would be donated to various
children’s charities.

:20:52
Very touching
gets you right here.

:20:55
Wal-Mart is telling you
if you purchase these pants

:20:57
and Kathy Lee
is telling you

:20:59
if you purchase
these pants

:21:00
you will be
helping children.

:21:01
The problem was
:21:02
the people that
handed us this label

:21:04
were 13 years of age.
:21:06
Do many people
in your family work here?

:21:10
Just me.
:21:11
How many people
do you support?

:21:11
Eight people?
:21:13
And how do you do it with
that salary is it enough?

:21:15
No.
:21:20
Let's look at it from
a different point of view

:21:21
Let's look at it
from a point of view

:21:23
of the people in Bangladesh
who are starving to death.

:21:30
The people in China
who are starving to death

:21:34
and the only thing that they
have to offer to anybody

:21:37
that is worth anything
:21:41
is their low
cost labour.

:21:44
And in effect what
they’re saying to the world

:21:47
is they have this big
flag that says

:21:51
Come over and hire us.
:21:53
We will work
for $ 0.10 an hour.

:21:56
Because $ 0.10 an hour
will buy us the rice

:21:58
that's wanted not
to starve.
