Don't stop reading before you get to the story of Dhong.

And yes it's possibly, maybe even probably, true of every other "American manufacturer" to some degree.

It's not so much the simple taking advantage of that gets me.  It's the taking of enormous profits on the ruined lives of others.  How much of the price of that iPhone is manufacturing cost?  How much is sheer profit?  At what cost?
