1. Why do some retailers manufacture clothes in Bangladesh? Do Americans benefit from this? Why or why not? (RI 7.1) 2. Student Katie Rowe says higher clothing prices might hurt sales. What facts from the article support or contradict her opinion? (RH 8) 3. How might having higher U.S. clothing prices help or hurt developing nations?

1. We Americans benefit from this because we don't have to do it and it's easy to get up and go to to the store and get 1 or more in 5 minutes, while in Bangladesh, it takes a little bit of time to make one and if you want clothes you really have to make them yourself. 2. It might hurt sales because people like to buy cheap things, not expensive things so they can have more shirts. If it would cost more they would look for a different manufacture for clothes. 3. It might hurt developing nations because they will get less money if people don't buy their clothing, and in order to develop, you need lots of money.
