Apple's Chinese Sweatshops

http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/jun/02/steve-jobs-foxconn-china-not-sweatshop

In June Steve Jobs said his Chinese employees (who were killing themselves) were NOT working in a sweatshop. The findings of their audit tell a different story.

Child Labor. Poisened employees. More then 60 hour work weeks and 1 day off (As opposed to a 40 hour work week with two days off in the US). Really what does any of that matter when the stock price is soaring and profits are through the roof. Small price to pay for some negative press.
