Nov 2012
A fire rages through a manufacturing plant.
And many under paid and truly innocent people dies.
As they sew clothes for well known brand apparel firms.

And, when the news spotlight the well known brand.
Instantly, they send out the spokes persons to defend their name.
Suddenly, it's nobody's responsibilty for these death.

What American or foreigner?
Doesn't believe that many famous celebrities isn't at fault.
Sure they indiretly share the blame simply because they lent out their name.
While not questioning a single thing.

We know for cheaper pay.
Many countries does corporation dirt work.
Which only gets spotlighted.
When innocent people dies in a fire.

Executives, only cares about the dollar sign.
And the investors seeking profit too.
Is right there behind them.
And they wonder, why people complains?
Because we know.
It's nobody's responsibilty when death comes.

We blame someone for it.
As long as it's not us.
