The author of the blog Everything’s Bigger... and Better in Texas??? expresses his frustration in “Funding the Enemy”, about how the University of Texas signed a contract last year with VF Corporation, giving them exclusive rights for selling adult t-shirts. This caused many small companies in Austin to go out of business, which led to families in Austin suffering. VF brings their product from out of the country, so by giving a large corporation exclusive rights, UTA put many local citizens out of work, while giving more business to those that don’t even work within the United States. This author offers a concise and informatory argument that shows the dark side of business done by the longhorns. Even though it is only one side to the story, it is the right point of view so that the reader can get a better grasp of how serious the situation was.
