Entertainer P. Diddy in trouble about Sweatshops in Honduras

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)

Does having too much money eliminate the cares in the world? Well in the Entertainer, Mogul, and Entrepreneur Sean "P-Diddy Combs case he is accused of having sweat shops in Honduras for Sean John the entrepreneurs clothing line.

In my opinion because of his status he should have someone in charge of everything that he does. I know he have stockborkers, accountants, lawyers and PR persons that should haven't let something this important slip through the cracks.

I am not going to judge or form an opinion concerning who is gulity or not but Sean is handling this in a very well manner.

In one of my classes we are discussing this issues and it was said that in third world countries sweat shops are a way of life. If we take away sweat shops that make 12 cents than would cause serveral people out of jobs because that is more than what they would make. It was said that they need these types of jobs. But in America it is consider illegal.

Dr. Klapak asked the class what would we do: Go over seas to pay wages of 12 cents or stay in America and pay $18/hr. It is a tough discission because they natives of the poor countries need money but so does our citizens. It is a steep cost to pay high wages in America but to have a succesful business and advoid a crisis in the PR realm then in my case I would do what is right and keep the jobs in America.

Yeah. I heard about this one, but I guess since he finished the race in New York today, all of that bad publicity is forgotten.

Good for you in digging this up amid all of the "knight in shining armor" PR he is getting for running in a race for kids, when by some odd chance, he is really causing some of the world's problems in today's youth. Very ironic.
