Yes, rampant housing speculation has pushed housing prices sky high -- in many areas housing prices are higher than in the US or Europe. But the factories have nothing to do with that.

Yes, many people earn $400 a month and buy a $600 phone and spend a few 100 on clothing each month
I highly doubt where you get the statistics, you calculate it in your own brain? How many of them? Are they workers in Foxconn?
People in China have only recently come into money during the last few years and now they want everything right away.
How many do you know they want everything right away? You again make statistics on your own?
And they get pretty good wages in Shenzhen
The lowest wage standard in Shenzhen is rmb 900, $137/month. Most of them can earn $250 if take full load OTwork. Good wages?
They get factory supplied housing and meals
I think you would enjoy these meals, the lunch is rmb 4.5 ( $0.66) per person.
My friend, they're human like you, and me. Please offer at least some sympathy. They have died. They cannot argue with you. but God knows all of these!
