But really, this kid got what he deserves. This kind of stuff goes on in China all the damn time. On the upside, the kid didn't have his organs harvested when he was in a labor camp. He at least got paid a bit of money, and has something to show for it. The only reason this made any kind of Western headlines is because he wanted an Apple widget. If organ harvesting was feasable back when America was up & coming, you can bet the same crap would have gone on. Instead? We just snatched people of different color from their homelands, and forced them to work for barely enough to eat. This kind of stuff will hopefully fall by the wayside more as more people in China see more stories like this. Which sadly, due to the media cencorship in China will make things rather difficult. They have little exposure about this kind of stuff that it's incredibly stupid to do, and they need more stories about this kind of thing so others are less inclined to make such stupid mistakes.
Simple kind of scenario when you were growing up. Did you learn that something was dangerous when your parents told you it was a bad idea, or did you learn when you watched Timmy or Sally down the street do that exact thing, and get injured? One gets hurt, the whole neighborhood learns a valuable lesson.
