H&M, Wal-Mart Destroy Unsold Clothing: Report

Amid the recession and the cold winter months, Cynthia Magnus made a shocking discovery at the H&M in Manhattan's Herald Square. It wasn't a sale on the season's hottest trends--it was garbage bags upon garbage bags of unsold merchandise, most of it slashed with razors to ensure that no one would ever wear or sell it, the New York Times reports.

"Gloves with the fingers cut off," Ms. Magnus said, reciting the inventory of ruined items. "Warm socks. Cute patent leather Mary Jane school shoes, maybe for fourth graders, with the instep cut up with a scissor. Men's jackets, slashed across the body and the arms. The puffy fiber fill was coming out in big white cotton balls." The jackets were tagged $59, $79 and $129.


And right around the corner from this particular H&M is a popular collection point for New York Cares' coat drive. The organization's spokeswoman Colleen Farrell told the Times, "We'd be glad to take unworn coats, and companies often send them to us."

2. I suspect not. That however leaves it plenty of room to be better than 2009 or 2008. NT

15. I am too, but...
I believe the system is the problem, not the solution.

Until enough people are suffering enough to take to the streets and do something outrageous to tell our elected representatives and their puppet masters that things have come to the point where we are ready to destroy the system unless it starts working for "We the People," I plan to continue on with the campaign and voting exercise for sentimental reasons.

17. It won't be the best year ever if

Barack continues to move to the middle like he's been the last several months.

Marching forward on HCR, without the Public Option, is so very disturbing.

If all of our leaders are going to resign like they seem to be as of late, they ought to at least stand on Progressive principles.

18. Whatever you are smoking or taking ...
I want some.

This year, even so far, SUCKS POND WATER and shows no signs of improving for those MILLIONS who are without gainful employment.

24. It won't be a good year if

you're unemployed and don't have health insurance. :scared:

In fact, it's going to down right stink.

However, if you're with Big Oil, Big Defense, Big Pharma, Big Insurance, it's going to be a bang-up 12 months.

The saddest part is, we don't have the Pukes to blame for that.
