Watch the video Stossel Macro 07- Boycotts of sweatshops helpful?(new window) (6:16).

How do the employment opportunities at the sweatshop compare with the alternatives available to the employees?  If the sweatshop was closed, would the employees be helped or hurt?  Explain. As always, please make reference to the video so that I know that you watched it.
