ITUC says that "inhumane" employee conditions led to issue with the Samsung Galaxy Note 7

NO EXCUSE!

Samsung should still have them check every phone before it hits the shelf. And if thats the case of their workers being abused and and working in inhumane conditions, samsung has another problem on their hands.

Blah blah blah..
Even the employees at the contract firm that makes Apple components suffer similarly.

Horrible, totally horrible.
I thought this stuff mostly happens in Chinese factories. *cough* Foxconn *cough*

You are aware some components of Galaxy devices are made in China? Your lack of an education is showing.

The contract firm (Foxconn) that makes the iPhone have similar practices, if not worst.
Just Google the Foxconn iPhone assemblers who committed suicide and jumped off the building. These are FACTS!

Unions are what’s wrong with most places these days. A key example would be the ones with BART, and those in Detroit (UAW). All workers likely suffer under poor conditions in China, yet this is nothing new because they don’t have rules like other developed nations.

Right Alan. One theory after another. That’s all they are until the investigation just theories until then. Keep them coming.
