Different norms.

written by Julie R. Neidlinger 2 comments link this post

The quote of the day comes from Warren Buffett, who said that factories in China have different norms for working conditions than those in the U.S., and he won't "tell the world how to run" their businesses.

That's one way to put it.

If you're the world's richest man, you gotta find some way to live with yourself.

Ouch.

I think the thing that makes me cringe the most about this is the fact that we know of SOME human rights violations as they exist in China, but how much is being covered up by the Communist government? I like to ponder conspiracy theories as much as the next person, but I still can't help but wonder at the atrocities that take place under the radar of American capitalism.
