No.
But because you bought a product from them you become rich.
Consider the same clothes manufactured in the US. You'd probably have to pay, say 3 times the price.
Thus, you would have less money to spare, and in a sense be less "rich".
So would it not be fair to share this extra pocket money you get with the person who made your clothes?
