11. Deluxe: How Luxury
Lost Its Luster
―I remember walking into an
assembly plant in Thailand
a couple of years ago and
seeing six or seven little children,
all under 10 years old, sitting on
the floor assembling counterfeit
leather handbags, an investigator
told me...
'The owners had broken the
children's legs and tied the
lower leg to the thigh so the
bones wouldn't mend. [They]
did it because the children said
they wanted to go outside and
play.‖
