If iphone was made in US it would be a few dollars more expensive - this is not the point. It probably would be as well done - maybe better, maybe not - this is not the point either. But it WOULD be made in human conditions where people don't have to accept slave like conditions - this IS the point. Us accepting the "made in china" label is like us saying slavery is ok, workers abuse and exploitation is ok, and if that is the case then when do we stop? Is torture then ok? As pointed out by the article the issue is not of $ (after all the execs themselves say that made in US would cost just a few bucks more), but our moral responsibility to either care or not about our fellow beings.
- but what of the shareholders, and the exec jobs if share value decreasesdeathboy
