We (consumers) have no one to blame but ourselves (Score 1)

It's pretty easy to "blame" Apple for hiring sweat shops, but the real blame in all of this is ourselves. Companies like Walmart have spoiled us to such low prices for things that we are unwilling to pay the "real" cost of the product. A really lean company needs to pull 20 to 30% profit on their products to cover warranty costs and overhead of employee's heathcare, benefits etc, some may be able to go lower but not most. If apple were to still cover their profit requirements; then a typical ipod would be hundreds of dollars more, an we the consumers just aren't gonna pay anymore then what we are now. We've forced most of these company's to outsource because basically Americans are always looking to the "best" deal on everything.
