He’s deeply offended that his profits will be hurt. Nothing wrong with profits don’t get me wrong, but treating people like animals is wrong.

Good thing they are hip and cool, otherwise they may get protested by the perpetually aggrieved.

BBC reporters secretly filmed an iPhone 6 production line in China 'Exhausted' workers were filmed falling asleep on their 12 hour shifts Just imagine if they had filmed Detroit auto workers in the seventies and eighties. Dozing off would have been the least of their problems.

Saw that report last night.My travels in China (including recent visits) clearly show that the huge majority of the people live like beasts.Although I've never toured a Chinese factory it isn't *at all* difficult for me to believe that Chinese factory workers are treated like beasts.
If I can figure that out the top management at Apple should be able to figure it out.

So he manufactures in China because it is more expensive than manufacturing in the country that made him a very rich man?

Libs are always “deeply offended” by something.
And, if they aren’t, they’re waiting to be.

Why doesn’t he make iPhones in his home state of Alabama? Oh wait. slavery was outlawed some time ago. And he might be a bit bigoted towards Christians in Alabama.

They have nets on the buildings to stop workers from commiting suicide. That shows really bad priorities.

Aww...poor wittew CEO is "offended." He needs to clean the sand out of his
female reproductive organ and man up...
I am sick of all the pansies on this planet who cry about being "offended" at the offense du jour of the day/week.
