That's a bit extreme. China is going through the same thing the USA went through in the early industrial revolution, lots of people flocking to sweatshop factory work because it's better than the alternative of rural poverty/starvation. You'd be hard pressed to find any made-in-china consumer electronics device that is not made under similar conditions. My father-in-law's PC (HP/Compaq) which I recently had apart had Foxconn stuff in it.
