It is impossible to buy a locally made shirt, nor pants, nor anything. Except "traditional" / indigenous clothes for tourist, but that doesnt count.
Obviously, very few people would, like me, buy locally made new clothes because they would be more expensive and "Not American". And I understand and accept why that happens as described in the article.
Do you want to help a poor country? Buy their products at fair price. Don't dump powder milk surplus because the kids.
