Jolinia you are way in over your head here. @trojan_bb def correct here, and you are just ignoring facts.
The fact that Nike factories pay more then the cost of living (poverty line) to those people means that they getting better jobs then offered in most places in their country to uneducated. You also need to take into around the laws in other countries before you can make an argument about work conditions.
Do you have a documentary that compares Nike factories to another factory in the same city as comparison of deplorable conditions? Are are you pulling at straws trying to just argue and be anti Nike?
Nike in the US is an amazing place to work for that unbelievable benefits. How are they different then most other companies that send factories oversees? It is still cheaper, because difference in cost of living and minimum wage.
And I can guarantee that anyone make $70k a year is not in poverty. They are either crappy with fiances and budgeting or they are just lying.
What an attitude! Those slave plantations, they're all bad, so they're all okay? No. None are okay. Ever. I don't care if Nike has the best sweatshop of all the sweatshops in the world, if it's horrible working and living conditions for the workers, it needs to change. And it seems they might be working toward that change. We shall see.
