Globalization of Production

"Foxconn is actually a Taiwanese company with facilities in China. So, in this case, an American company contracts a Taiwanese manufacturer, with a factory in China that hires Chinese laborers, to assemble products that will be sold in American stores. That is a simple model of how global production works"
I never heard of the company Foxconn before and I became interested in how hard these laborers work and the pressure involve in manufacturing these high quality  apple electronics and gadgets. I became curious and wanted to find out how workers are treated and what work conditions they face at Foxconn. from my research I have learned that workers are not treated fairly or with dignity. 13 workers have attempted or committed suicide within 5 months in 2010.that number is shocking to me and within only 5 months. since the company is originally a Taiwanese company with locations in china the migrant workers are treated unfairly, get paid little and their labor and citizen rights are violated,. some of the workers are abused and work long hours and are pressures and mistreated. after reading this I feel a type of way to purchase an IPhone. these people are used as cheap labor and suffer so much to the point of committing suicide and then the Apple products are so expensive.
