Sweat X and American Apparel

[R_P_A_S]

These two are big here in Los Angeles. they make clothes. but one "American Apparel" and their CEO Dov Charney is an anti-union "entrepreneur" Who claims to have develop a better business, production model that keeps workers happy and paid well with out the ills of a union.

And the other Sweat X it's struggling to compete with American Apparel and workers are trying to slowly make it into a worker own garnet making company..

Here's the video report about them on Current TV

any thoughts? I have to say that the words "venture capital" and "entrepreneur" don't rub me the right way. This is clearly not a workers paradise. BUT definitely better than a sweat shop.

The most passionate to capitalist in myself is passionate capitalist but still I want a revolution since it better.

Passionate Capitalist is the capitalist who uses money not for themselve but to help the surrounding community. There is one Indian eye doctor (I forgot his name), who is very extremely rich as he also owns a hospital in his community but live as a poor in his community as he don't even own a car, he gives free exam almost all time, extremely cheap lense ($1 a piece) and free medication to his community and hospital. He gives great wage, help kid to get education & college, & helps pay the community celebration. He has saved many people from getting blind or eye disease in his community. Sadly, he the only one I ever know as compassionate capitalist as he termed it himself I believe. He is very successful. However, I am for the revolution.
