San Francisco, I love you
San Francisco recently passed the most progressive sweatfree ordinance in the country. This ordinance prohibits the the San Francisco city government from purchasing goods from sweatshops, including everything from apparel to food.
Included within the ordinance, is an Organic and Fair Trade preference, meaning that San Francisco will be the first city in the country to promote organic, sweatfree, and fair trade goods!

I wonder if we can get LA to do the same...
BTW -- do you really worship Satan? That seems like a lot of serious, possibly painful work. Atheism is so much more time-n-energy-efficient --

Since you asked, no, I don't really worship Satan. Mostly because I don't believe he exists. But if he did exist, then I probably would, because the alternatives just aren't that sexy.

I believe LA is already one step of SF in the sweatshop free ordinance world. LA supposedly was the model for the legislation. Found this.
