"make or ASSEMBLE" where assemble is the key word...next sentence they fess up it represents a LIMITED portion of their US sales...translation: not a lot...

AND OF THOSE USA MADE SHOES, 30% of the material is not USA made...

But that was dated August 20th. Not sure if that has any relevance to what happened since.

Here is the most recent report...and yes it looks like it's a big homerun for Nike:

Nike knows what it's doing. The media played into its hands. Well played.

Capitalism is a beautiful thing. I'm not being ironic. Seriously. SJWs moist themselves crying about people earning $2 per day but that $2 is way more than .10 USD per day doing family farm field work.

It's good to capitalize off black pain!

Nike knows it's profitable and good business to oppose racists.

Kapaernick did not make the sales "surge", it was Labor day sales prices.
Nike stock was kicking ass before Kapernick ads ran. If Nike had Maria Sharapova do ads it would be at the same place.

On a side note, I was talking to sportswear shop sales person in Hong Kong, They said Nike sales have stopped and Adidas sales took off because of the Serena Williams US Open temper tantrum and loss to Naomi Osaka. Serena Williams disgraced the game and America.

Winners wear Adidas

Dow Jones stock was kicking ass before Trump .....

I'm a social democrat who believes in capitalism. just not in it's current form. that's the frustrating thing, unless you live like ted kaczynski we all participate in injustice via our interactions with society, and don't currently have a choice to not participate in shit we know is wrong.

my shoes are my vegan purple docs and flip flops, both made in Asia. Do you think these workers are paid well?

China is becoming a massive investor in JA and def helping the country get out from under the thumb of the US, but for people in China who still have suicide nets around computer factories?

or women in Bangladesh who still die in fires in sweatshops?

or racialized/low income kids in North America who are kicked out of school for some of the most minor offenses (man, like some kids are expelled for way less shit than I did back in my day). so they either sell drugs or be squeegee kids cuz they have zero support from anyone in authority who could help them?

and we all seem to be ok with this. otherwise we COULD change capitalism which has gone through several stages already.

capitalism is a human construct, we could change it if we wanted to, to be more just and ethical. but we don't.

why?
