Would you find it despicable if a company gave out clothes with its logo/slogan on it to the homeless/needy?

Would you say that's exploitation?

 

[deftron]

No.


I think Tommy Hilfiger did that or some designer

 

[dug777]

cool, Citibank hoboes

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No, the bums should be thankful.

 

[GoingUp]

no

 

[Black88GTA]

No. They don't like it, they don't have to wear it - nobody's holding a gun to their head to put the clothes on. You get what you pay for.

Clothes are clothes, whats the difference between you giving your old shirts to them and a company giving NEW shirts with their logo on them? As long as the sole purpose of them giving away their clothes isn't to ADVERTISE ON HOMELESS PEOPLE (the thought of that is, however, quite amusing) I'd say let em...

Beggars can't be choosers.

A guy I work with said he was going to quit and give all his uniforms to homeless people and pay them to sit around outside our office.

 

[Rogue]

Hell, I think I would actually support companies who did this. I'd rather see their advertising doing something good for someone because all other forms of advertising suck ass.

In fact, here's my scale of despicable people:

pedophiles < advertisers < lawyers (the shady, seedy, money grubbing type) < *.*

With logo shirts, they can have team bumfights. Score!

Apple vs Microsoft, fight of the century!

It is exploitation, but there isn't anything wrong with it since both parties benefit from it.

Almost hilarious is that hobo porn I saw on the interweb. Talk about scary...

 

[Corporate Thug]

corporate clothes are better than no clothes

 

[UncleWai]

It really depends if you like Bentham or Mills.

 

[Crappopotamus]

it may be a good cause, but its a poor marketing campaign. bums dont make good spokesmen.
*drunken slur* YEAHHHH BUY THIS SH1T MANNNNNN.....

 

[masterxfob]

bums could wear it inside out or just tear that crap off.

 

[Zanix]

Expolitation? What the hell are people paying money for? The paying customers get clothes with logos all over them.

reminds me of the end of the puffy shirt seinfeld ep
