Nike+and+Child+Labor

. Nike Child labor is a huge problem in the United States and in the entire world. Large compainies like Nike have been discover using child labor in Pakistian. The US Department of Labor reported that Nikes factory in Pakistian was using child labor to make soccer balls. Occording to The United States Department of Labor " Pakistian is the largest supplier of soccer balls making a total of 34,091 in five year span". The department of labor said that they had found childern sewing soccer balls for 30 cents for evrey one they made. The reason for childern having to work is that the they dont pay there parent enough money to survive. Therfore there children have to work. The factories in Pakistian make the children work all day most not even going to school but having to work all day maybe making 7 soccer balls a day. The childeren that work in thes factories have to live in clay huts with maybe 5 other familes making it very cramp and terrible living ares. Child labor is a cruel and sad thing we dont get to see much of it in this country because of strink laws but if you live in the other countries such as Pakistian u may never have a chance to learn and get a better job because you have to work the children are beat and abused by there worker it not a pretty site and it must stop. The Unitied States Department of Labor has found a solution to stopping child labor and ending Nike cheap labor. They will enforce the same laws that we do here for Nike no matter where there factories are.
