Why East Africa wants to ban second hand clothes.

http://ichef-1.bbci.co.uk/news/660/c...-455651226.jpg

Who wants to ban second-hand clothes and cars?

Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda could all ban second-hand clothes and leather.

They make up the East Africa Community (EAC).

The EAC directed member countries to buy their textiles and shoes from within the region with a view to phasing out imports by 2019.

The idea is to give a boost to local manufacturing, and help the economy.

One argument is that the imported clothes are so cheap that the local textiles factories and self-employed tailors can't compete, so they either close down or don't do as well as they could.

When we donate clothing, I betcha most of us had little idea how much was actually sold. No wonder local manufacturers can't compete.

After reading what a scam the donated clothes business is, personally I will take clothes directly to local shelters, domestic violence centers.

Whatever happened to this guy? If Trump can run why not...

Drunk woman hits tree. Drove with it stuck to her car.

This woman's life is going to be challenging for making very poor choices, very glad no one was harmed physically except the innocent tree.

The Illinois woman, 54, is facing a drunk driving charge after allegedly plowing her car into a tree and then continuing to drive with the 15-foot accessory embedded in the vehicle's grille.

Christy was nabbed in late-January after a Roselle Police Department officer spotted her driving with the tree as a hood ornament. Investigators estimated that Christy drove several miles before getting pulled over.

Christy, who was navigating with the 2004 Lincoln’s air bags deployed, told the cop that she recalled hitting a tree, but could not remember where the 11 PM collision occurred. Christy, who was arrested a few miles from her home in Schaumburg, works as a marketing consultant, according to her LinkedIn profile.

After Christy failed a series of field sobriety tests, she was arrested for drunk driving. She is next due in court in April on the misdemeanor charge.
