>>We as a society do not take the view that business success overrides all soft concerns, especially with regard to their employees.

This is obviously wrong. Have you ever bought a iPhone? Or any other Apple product. Have you ever ordered anything from Amazon.

How do you think Walmarts and Targets of the world can sell you things for so cheap? Behind all this there is some guy being sent through some real hard ships.

As a consumer you have already made that choice.

Third world labor conditions suck, whether or not Apple or Amazon is involved. We were talking about working conditions in this country, however.

The reader will note that this is a classic example of the 'tu quoque' fallacy[0].
