    At the end of the day, if there were better options then those workers wouldn't be there. So you can boycott apple products, and see those workers unemployed. Or protest for higher prices, and see only some of those workers unemployed, or carry on as normal and see those workers freely choose what is best for them under the circumstances.

    Complaining about it while enjoying the 21st century western lifestyle that an advanced economy brings, with the support of less advanced economies' labour, stinks of hypocrisy to me. If you really cared you'd be living the life of a monk while donating your surplus to the several billion less fortunate across the world.

    I don't care. I know that the best thing you can do for those workers in the long run is to keep consuming, and making those factories profitable.
    For the obtuse, we all agree labour abridge happens but Apple made certain promises which they never held to.

    You are obtuse not to take up that point.
