"For about a decade, almost without realizing it, Americans have benefited from falling prices for coats, dresses, men's slacks, women's skirts and blouses, toddlers' outfits, and other apparel as global quotas on clothing manufacturing have been systematically dismantled, boosting low-cost imports." (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER) The article reveals that "for American consumers, the decline in clothing prices is one upside of the trend toward globalization--the effort to expand free trade to all parts of the world."
