Just because it's produced in USA doesn't mean it has better conditions. As an example: Think of an illegal immigrant, they'll get paid lower than minimum wage since the patron is having the risk of a fine or something, plus they don't speak the language or simply don't know their rights.
To some this is still better than back at home, and some who do it to send money back home still get to send more than if they lived in their country, through exchange rates.
There was a documentary thing about this, someone who got paid cents for each bucket full of tomatoes they picked. I can't find it right now.
