Levis should be making its products here in the USA. Not some foreign country.
Just my opinion.
Sounds like a deal needs to be made.
Lesotho is a country in South Africa.
Southern Africa; not South Africa.
Well in a way it is in South Africa
My heart is breaking…
Sounds like a Lesotho problem to me.🤔
What honestly should be done is that countries should be trading with their neighbours and not simply be relying upon the US solely.

If American companies go there and offer jobs, should the people refuse to take them?
They have the power to make change. But they’d lose the ability to complain. It’s clear what they want.
I totally understand that. American corporation multiple-folds what the local jobs pay, so they are much sought after.
However, I mean what I say in an organic way that countries should be seeking to develop themselves, so they are less dependent upon the goodwill of Americans.
It is shortsighted of Trump not to take into account other factors besides the trade imbalance. Considering the situation of the increasing violence by Muslims in Africa and the political situation in South Africa (and other nations) it makes sense to help certain African nations stay economically viable and politically friendly to the U.S.
I know many will disagree because they think tariffs exist in isolation concerning only trade and have no bearing whatsoever on other aspects of foreign policy. African nations are indeed important to the U.S. and keeping China and Russia from gaining more of a foothold (Let alone Islam, and Socialism) should be a major part of decisions regarding how we deal with those nations.
I agree with you.
No, let Levi's and the other companies exploiting them help them. After all, they are the only people these guys can find to sew garments together, they are vital to the success of these companies, right? Let these modern day slave plantation owners pay them more, provide decent housing and amenities, healthcare, HIV testing/medications...isn't Levi's big on the whole LGBTQRZFRKLSYBWOYADAYADAYADA movement and their particular health needs? Seems like a great opportunity to prove it.
Not one more thin dime of American taxpayer money for this garbage, NPR. This garbage...or yours.
“It is shortsighted of Trump not to take into account other factors besides the trade imbalance.”
He does take other factors into account.
Reading this makes me thankful NPR was defunded.
