No, it's not good enough. But what are you going to do about it? There are lots of people in Bangladesh whose situation is worse than Meem's because they don't have sweatshop jobs. Poverty in Bangladesh isn't something we should just accept, but consider that that factory is doing more to make Meem's life better than anybody else. If you want to change things don't shit on the things that are helping, work to create better jobs and opportunities for people in Bangladesh so that sweatshops aren't their best options. But trying to take away the meager means that Bangladeshis have is perverse.
