Worker rights in China are still in the early 1900s, or worse, their policies are feudal.

Kind of ironic that the appalling working conditions of the 1900s are largely what gave rise to communism. Although based on what I know, the average 1900s factory worker would have sold their mother for Foxconn's working conditions.

But Apple is not a company of the early 1900s, remember what Jobs tried with Next.

That is something that would suit a company like Apple.
