>as i told gru, the elites think china's totalitarian control over the people is a raging success...>

Suicides in city factories and pollution are part of all countries in fast industrializing countries. It happened in industrial revolution in England. Similar Dickensian scenes are seen in all big cities in the world - whether Mumbai or Mexico or Bangkok or Jakarta. That does not imply that the labor is slave labor. Actually, this happens even more in the cities are vibrant with capitalist opportunities.

What happens is that workers from close knit villages move to the big, strange cities and start out at the bottom of the pyramid. Some find it exciting and some find that depressing. Therefore, some of the suicides in the bustling factory cities of China may be explained simply by this. I don't know how much of the suicides have to do with slave labor or a totalitarian communist government.
