"What do you care where I make my shoes?" says Prada Group NV Chief Executive Patrizio Bertelli. Where local laws permit, Mr. Bertelli says he'd prefer to insert a "Made by Prada" tag in his products. In addition to sewing the upper part of some shoes in Slovenia, Prada makes pieces for some of its handbags in Turkey.

I care, because you are not lowering your prices, but increasing your profit margins - you filthy greedy bastard.
WSJ, being a capitalist agent, of course barely brushes on the question of decreasing the profit margins and passing the savings to a consumer, and tactfully avoids sweatship labor issue altogether.
It was an entertaining read, nonetheless. Thanks Caffeine
