Young people preparing to enter the workforce can take heart that they can push back. An article at Apple Insider described worker rioting at a Foxconn factory in China.
Main point: There comes a point when frustration becomes greater than fear of that oppressive government.
More about it:
- “Even as Foxconn is seeking to hire 100,000 more workers — and the Chinese authorities are asking ex-military people to sign up — staff have already been fleeing the factory.”
- “…these rare scenes of public dissent in China were finally triggered by an alleged plan to delay bonus payments.”
- “This is not the first riot that has been seen at a factory wholly or mostly producing Apple products.”
Why it matters: “Apple has not yet commented on the rioting.” Why not?
