Foxconn Chengdu is a very sad story - exploitation to the maximum possible under the law of the unaware and uneducated, let aside the cutting of corners where ever possible on workers rights and pensions.

I think a movement should start and avoid the purchasing of Apple Products and then may be Steve Jobs will get the message and start assembly lines in Arkansas, Kansas or Louisiana or even Nevada with high unemployment.

Somewhere it should be clear to US corporate chieftains that enough is enough and free trade does not mean enslaving other nations people to lower productions cost and increase US corporate profits.

Long term it damages the social fabric both at home and abroad and grows resentment against the US as a nation.

Sticking the proverbial head in the sand and claim it is night and I do not see any wrongdoing is not an excuse.
