An SUV for that price... In sure Chinese sweatshop factory workers are paid fairly and work in safe conditions and get regular breaks, vacations, aock leave, etc... Right?
Because if not, you'd be buying products from slavery yet somehow I don't see that argument very much
So, instead of Chinese robot slavery, buy from American or Mexican human slavery?
but American slaves were convicted!
Mostly of being not white, but you know . . .
Not denying sweatshops over there, but it's highly likely these are mostly built by robots in empty buildings.
Yeah. Watched a factory tour and assembly for sany equipment. Excavators and such. There's people involved. But the facilities are clean automated and far from sweat shop looking. They make damn good equipment. I used to think it's junk. Then I had to fix a couple. Impressive stuff from those guys.
