Something that comes to mind from my drug dealing days is, "never pay in advance"

They are trying to cover up the fact that Fukushima melted down several days before the tsunami, and actually caused the quake. But they are not fooling me! *clutches tinfoil hat*

It kind of is wages, though, that and what goes along, i.e. the standard of living. To begin with, the working conditions in China are pretty bad, such as long hours and little pay. But then, there is this cultural attitude of obedience for the "good of the state" where people are willing to put up with crappy living conditions, small residences, living with parents, etc.

I wonder what it would take to teach the Chinese labor class to stand up for itself. Raising their standard would raise our own back up too.

Well of course it's easy, they don't send people up. Being man-rated makes the space shuttle vastly more complex.

To drop packets, we could install hydraulic crushers at the junctions. Or dig a pit down to lava.

Yes but if 90% of your app vendors program like this that doesn't matter. It sucks but it's your problem, not theirs.
