Seems like you didn't understand what I said. I wasn't talking about Foxconn in particular, I was talking about OEM factories in general. Actually I have never been inside Foxconn, but I have seen many other factories. The workers are being treated quite well, the safety standards are quite high. Is it a high pressure environment? Of course, we are talking about assembly lines. The questionable standards of human rights in China are in the political arena, not in the work place (when working for international companies). In the work place things have changed, the workers even have legal regress (and most cases are being decided in favor of the workers these days).

I have been in China for the last 25 years and know what I am talking about. I doubt you have much first hand experience in factories there. The businesses depend on having workers to run, these days it is more a question of workers 'abusing' companies -- like demanding 30% wage hikes, etc. -- than the other way around.
