No, the point isn't that we shouldn't complain, just it is good to keep perspective. (And a man can dream that if we kept that perspective, more of us would try to buy non sweatshop crap.)

Some lyrics (and why I love folk punk, even if this particular artist turned out to be, like so many, a jerk):

Always think about the things you buy and where they're from and how they're made
Always try to keep in mind that your privilege comes on the backs of slaves
