IF ITEM IS SOLD IN US, IT SHOULD BE IN ENGLISH. AND USING THE CARE SYMBOLS SHOULD ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL LANGUAGES ON THE LABEL. OR MANUFACTURER CAN MAKE THIS ADJUSTMENT WHEN THE ITEMS ARE MADE. THERE IS A CONTINUING NEED TO ASSIST SPECIAL NEEDS INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY LIVE ALONE. THERE IS A MINIMAL BURDEN-COSTS WOULD BE LOW AS LABELS ARE SMALL AND NOT A MAJOR COMPONENT OF THE GARMENT. THE ECONOMIC IMPACT-ADVANTAGEOUS SINCE IT WOULD BUILD TRUST IN THE BRAND AND COMPANY.
