History of sweatshops

Sweatshops have been around since people start to work for other people. They have just become more when demand for metrial things have increase. "One of the earliest examples of a sweatshop was in the crude textile mills of Ecuador. Spanish conquerors put the native population to work in sweatshop conditions in the manufacture of cloth, rough garments, and assorted textile goods. The use of the term is more recently traced to working conditions in England's emerging manufacturing industries, where women and children sweated in jobs performed under horrid conditions-the work being monotonous, the hours long, and the pay miserably low. The British government established a Select Committee of the House of Lords on the Sweating System in 1889, thus publicly exposing the conditions for the first time. With massive immigration into the United States, especially beginning in the late 1880s, sweatshops became common in American cities on the east coast." This quote made me ask the question if sweatshops date back to the 1880s could they be an end to them? It seems like sweatshops are part of every history to developing countries. So by looking at the history of sweatshops it seems like they may be beened to help countries. Thing issues is when is the country develop. When the Government is able to get ride of the factories, or when the workers could form a union. What if thats never happens, what happen then do sweats shop last forever. Looking back at the history of sweatshops we could see some efforts to improve the conditions of sweatshops. "Initial efforts to correct or improve sweatshops in the United States began in 1884 with legislation in the state of New York to eliminate the production of tobacco products in homes-a practice common in the cigar industry. Similar state labor laws proved generally ineffective before trade unions were able to bring about slight relief. But it took federal minimum wage and maximum-hours legislation in 1938 before sweat-shops began to disappear." Its seems like when legislation is made on sweatshops they disappear. However is that a good thing? In my research I learn that it could be a bad thing for sweatshops to just dissappear. They could leave a country that had little with nothing.
