Foxconn makes parts for all major electronics companies. The pay is the same across the board.

All except Apple (RIGHT....) lose money or barely break even.

I guess Apple being the evil that they are should triple the salaries to these workers and effectively kill the competition. They would only spend extra $20 per ipad and we know the competition can't do that.

Would that generate some anti competitive lawsuits? Who cares, it's Apple. They can afford it. Until they can't. Again, who needs these guys around?

Seriously though. It's a tough world out there. Apple is not the ones to blame for poor working conditions. The problem is much bigger than that and I don't believe that Apple with all their riches can fix that.
