Force all online retailers to disclose where a product is manufactured
We should be free to choose where we buy our products from. Many of us do not wish to support countries that have a shocking history of human rights violations (which still go on today) or unfair treatment of their workers.
It's just about giving people the chance to choose, if they so wish!
We should have the right to choose where our products are sourced. Often online companies selling products say through Amazon are English or European, so buyers automatically think that the product was manufactured there, but this is not as always the case! This is simply about transparency, giving consumers the information they need to make an informed decision that is right for them.
Sellers should have the name of the country clearly displayed in the product info.
