Shameless. Multinational corporations have stopped even pretending to have a moral center nowadays.
My wife's cousin's husband's half-brother worked as a "pinker" for Levi's in the late '80s. He said they used to hang them up from the ceiling on these big aluminum hooks, and do the first cut right there on the floor, just so that the fit was "relaxed" by the time they got dunked in the acid wash.
Poor guy won't even wear regular pants, to this day.
