In the article Knock-offs catch on , the economic situation that they brought up was that people are making counter fit goods. By them making counter fit goods they are making a lot of money off something that’s not real. Now they are making counter fit vehicles in Bangkok and fake gold in Germany.
The counter fit world makes a lot of money. Just in 2007 they made $250 billion dollars , it makes up 5-7 % of the world trade. The recession increases the profit of counter fit goods. People aren’t able to buy the same expensive items , so they look to the thing that are close to them. Louis Vuitton made complaints just last year and it lead to 9500 knock offs being seized.
I think that more people are going to continue to buy knock offs , as long as the economy is the way it is . I think its wrong for someone to make a duplicate of something that a person has spent there time and effort and also there money on. I believe the crack downs are going to help the situation but people are becoming more crafty and discreet about the situation.
