The end

If we were to increase the wages for workers in China we would give companies less of an incentive to outsource jobs. Outsourcing allows us to enjoy latest technology that almost everyone in the western world can afford. By outsourcing these jobs to China we are also creating a strong competitive labor force that creates thousands of jobs crucial for the survival of many Chinese villages.

In order to understand sweatshop existence in China we must first understand Chinas economic situation. Why must alot ofd these Chinese people choose to work in the first place (sweatshops)? Most “poor” countries are not really poor – they just have a small minority of extremely rich people who control all the wealth.

My personal experience in China has lead me to this conclusion. although to our standards sweatshops appear to be unethical, they are a vital and essential asset to China. I have seen how locals fight to survive in areas where sweatshops do not exist, and all I ever hear them say is they wish factories would open up in their citites. Their alternatives are to sell on the streets, making bearly enough to send their children to primary school. The Chinese government does not publically announce statistics thus making it increasingly hard for us to make bold statements.
