Erin Burnett calls for stronger unions after Bangladesh factory collapse

Rescue workers have called off a search for survivors in Bangladesh. Last week the eight-story Rana Plaza complex collapsed trapping thousands and killing hundreds of garment workers.

Most of them young, impoverished women. And it could have been avoided.
Officials say the complex was built on spongy ground without the correct permits and the building's owners ignored cracks.

After Bangladesh building collapse, Shahina's death breaks rescuers' hearts

The government in Bangladesh have vowed to investigate conditions at the factories. And retailers that use the facilities – like Wal-Mart and the Gap – have set aside money to improve safety.

Erin Burnett reminds us that we've heard that tune before.

Hundreds have been killed in similar disasters over the past decade. It has become increasingly obvious that the government and retailers can not and will not police themselves.

Bangladesh has about 4,500 garment factories, which account for 80% of the country's total exports.

Bangladesh garment factory fire claims more than 100 lives: How do you stop it from happening again?

In November, when we told you about a factory fire that killed 112 workers, we said it was time for stronger unions to protect the rights of the workers.

Now, with another 400 dead, Burnett says unions are more important than ever.
