Eugenics and Democide: IPhone Factors Have Suicide Nets
Apple Factories have suicide nets because the working conditions are so bad. I have an Iphone too. Dang.
No, i figured it out just before now.

The broadcaster revealed that the entry-level salary of just £180 per month is so low that it would take more than two months salary to pay for the cheapest iPad.
Also in 2011, the per capita disposal income for Chinese urban dwellers rose by 14.1 percent to 21,810 yuan (3,493 U.S. dollars) over that in 2010. The figure for rural residents rose by 17.9 percent to 6,977 yuan. The figures could be lower with consideration of inflation.
And this is what Romney was "impressed" by.
The reality is that MOST American companies do just this all over the globe. Companies like Wal-Mart open sweat shops that pay excellent wages and have better working conditions than what is available to the people in the area. Unfortunately, those conditions are horrific compared to what the average American is used to.Eugenics and Democide: IPhone Factors Have Suicide Nets

I would point out that I believe that they are talking about Foxconn where the factory has a population that rivals many cities. As a matter of fact, Foxconn has a suicide rate that is LOWER than many places with similar populations and better than the overall Chinese average.
Media gets its facts wrong - working at Foxconn significantly cuts suicide risk | ZDNet
The horrible suicide rate at Foxconn is extremely overstated.
£180 is $273.49.
That makes an annual income of $3281.88.

Also in 2011, the per capita disposal income for Chinese urban dwellers rose by 14.1 percent to 21,810 yuan (3,493 U.S. dollars) over that in 2010. The figure for rural residents rose by 17.9 percent to 6,977 yuan. The figures could be lower with consideration of inflation.
6,977 yuan is $1123.42.
So the Apple factory is paying pretty close to the national average for Chinese urban dwellers, and well above the national average for rural residents.
And that is entry level pay. So that's pretty damn good pay by Chinese standards.
The working conditions and pay may seem harsh by our advanced developed country standards, but are completely typical for a developing nation.
The labor they are performing is grunt work, not highly skilled work.
They are right in line with the smiley curve of manufacturing.
America needs to stay on the two high points of that curve. If we don't get our educational system's shit together, we won't be for much longer.
They are likely drug addicts sent to forced labor. There's no sympathy for them. There are plenty more drug addicts where they come from.

Created in 2008 as part of a reform effort to grapple with the countrys growing narcotics problem, the centers, lawyers and drug experts say, have become de facto penal colonies where inmates are sent to factories and farms, fed substandard food and denied basic medical care.
It's one of the very few Chinese policies we should implement here.

How psychotic. Seek professional help.
Or suck-start a shotgun.
Of course they have suicide nets. Person cannot kill themselves without State Permission first!
But of course America stands for Personal Freedom and fight Government Oppression everywhere so because iPhone made with Oppressed Slave Labor is banned in USA correct?
USA not hypocrite is it?
