You don’t care if a Communist Chinese slave is paid $1.22 an hour so Apple can accumulate $100 billion in cash and pay Tim Cook $400 million 2011. You get an A for honesty and an F for humanity.

Car companies,texties,toys… I bet no one has heard of the murders in Juarez Mexico, thats been going on for decades. These are mostly women who work at factories run by American Corporations. They get murdered on the way to and from work.

This will please everyone! Also paying more for wages will increase profits, won’t it??

@ neo, there’s a difference. apple has the ability — and some would say responsibility — to ensure safe working conditions and reasonable wages for its partners’ employees.

They need to voluntarily increase their workers wages by a huge margin; lead the industry.

Bill Gates is leading here

A few more strategic and intelligent acquisitions could go a long way though.

Tim Cook’s 2011 compensation = $378 million dollars. Chinese Fox Conn worker’s wage = $1.22 per hour.
