Not long ago, a textile manufacturing building collapsed in Bangladesh and killed many employees who manufactured clothing for companies like Wal-mart, Target, and The Gap.

Why are some retailers refusing to support a new safety agreement for overseas manufacturing workers, and do you agree with their argument? Do you think knowledge of these types of safety deficiencies makes a difference to American consumers’ buying decisions?
