[quote chas_m]As a follow-up to this very interesting discussion, may I suggest that those of you with access to the Sundance Channel plan to record the eye-opening documentary "Mardi Gras: Made in China" on Aug. 28th at 1pm and again at 10:30PM (times are ET/PT).
Particularly given pRon's insightful comment, the documentary will give you a REAL look into the lives of Chinese workers of all types.
I have not had a chance to see that documentary yet but from what I understand it is a brutally honest look of what is going on over there. Some companies such as Apple have a code of conduct but I doubt many other companies do. I hope Apple stays on top of this.
