Soo... are any of the protesters urging higher wages and lower hours or are we all too addicted to our cheap goods?


Would it really make that much of a difference in this case? I think Apple is getting more pressure than most because they essentially are selling a luxury good, where the cost spent on the Chinese manufacturing is not that high a percentage of the total retail sales cost, so they could afford to spend more and still turn a profit.
