I just spent 70 fucking dollars on 8 pairs of underwear
No fucking wonder trump won, inflation is out of control, and all the Dems have done is shrugged their shoulders and sent more money to Nazis overseas.
The underwear was made in Cambodia but I get a feeling the workers there didn't get paid $8.75 per underwear made nor even a tenth of that amount.
Youre just not understanding the costs. There is no view from nowhere, and there are no sweatshops there either, those underwear were made somewhere. Rent/upkeep on facilities probably cost as much as a whole SIX cents per pair, and there was both labor and space on modes of transit used to get the underwear to you. That likely cost as much as $0.5 per pair of underwear. Plus, are they made of sunshine and prayers conjured by humming the Internationale just right? No? Then there is fabric there. That wasnt free, it cost probably as much as $0.05 per pair. That puts the minimum expenses, including the cost of either turnover or feeding the sewing slaves (as much as $0.08 per pair! Highway robbery!) Comes out to $0.69 per pair! And of course the owners need to make a profit!
So maybe think before you speak, commie. Maybe the world is more complicated than your absurd ideology makes it out to be, and things cost a little more to make than just 8 cents per pair, and maybe JUST MAYBE the people running these massive global supply chains know what they're doing, and you shouldn't assume you know better, just because of some quixotic nonsense that feels good to say like "slavery bad"? Grow up.
Don't forget that a small army of lawyers need to be paid for to fight the government when it finds out that the dyes in that underwear cause cancer. OP also has to pay for the settlement fund for that class action lawsuit and the fines that accompany it.
I was grumpy about $20 for a six-pack of cotton bikinis the other day, but I guess I should have been happy
🧓 when I was in my early 20s and still shopping there (before I realized how ass they are at fitting*), I could regularly get very fancy Victoria's Secret panties on sale for that price
* — Old Weird Auntie PSA, your bras shouldn't hurt and should actually help your posture and back pain, please hmu for more info if this is news to you
when the band is doing the work of supporting breast tissue, that weight is pulling less on the shoulders
that might seem to necessitate a tighter band, but actually the structure of the bra can make just as much of a difference – if a person with narrow, pendulous tissue is trying to wear a bra structured for people with wider or shallower tissue, it's not going to help nearly as much
