7. honestly
Do you think ANY company that has anything made in China is any better? Do you see where the reporter asked how the workers' jobs compared to others' from their homewtown? Oh, you didn't? Because he didn't ask. Is Foxconn ONLY making Apple products? 400,000 workers and they're only making Apple products? Really? 9 suicides out of 400,000 workers? Is that a lot?

Not trying to defend Apple here. ALL corporations are complicit the second they take their manufacturing facilities to a country that can legally treat their workers this way... to single out Apple is EXTREMELY disingenuous.
