As usual, the underlying issue is a lack of government regulation and enforcement (and thus the fault of the people). And, frankly, most people don't care about these problems because they're abstract (to them) and the price of goods on the local multinational corporation's shelves are what they really care about.
I personally spend an awful lot of time being careful about what I buy and who I buy it from. Most people even if they have the resources to do so and spend 2x-5x the low price will just refuse to do any research in the first place.
