An Apple a Day Keeps the Morals Away

The revolutionary iPad, iPhone, iPod! It's all so great! Have you thought who makes your so amazing technology? Well, in China there are several Apple factories(Foxconn factories). You hear of the bowling allies and other recreational activities for the workers at the factories, but do they get to use all that when they are forced to work 98 hours of overtime a month? Mind you, the legal limit is 36 hours a month. Evidence of under aged workers has been found and that workers are sharing a room with at least 8 other people. If you go to a factory you will see suicide nets around the building. That isn't very reassuring is it? At least 14 people had killed themselves in the last 16 months! Now they are having their workers sign a suicide pledge! This is a few of the working conditions the people who make are precious Apple technology go through. While you're buying a 500 dollar iPad, remember the people who make it for you would have to work at least two months to buy the cheapest iPad.
