Would the workers at Foxconn be better off if we took away their option to work at Foxconn? In general, if they thought that was their best option, it's hard for me to accept at that step an argument that providing them that option is making their life worse [than it would otherwise be]. Maybe there are a few more steps in the argument that make that position stronger?


Pretty much every country had or will have an exploitation phase before they get wealthy. The only difference is that some countries still have their exploitation phase ahead of them.
