These comments remind me a Chinese story about an ancient king. Once upon a time, a kingdom experienced a natural disarster, the people were starving. So someone reported this situation to the king: "My lord, your people have no rice this year, they are starving to death." The king felt very strange and soon became very angry: "Those stupid people! why they don't eat pork?" What a SMART king. Yes, it's not easy for those who sit in a comfortible air-conditioned room with coffee in hand to understand why there do exist people willing to work over 60 hours a week. There must be some terrible human right issues in that country. Do you know how many people live in the rural area of China for agriculture work? 800,000,000. Do you know how much money such a family own if they only do agricultural work at home? In some middle and west places of China, only $200-300 per year, even less. This is also why so many young people go out from their home in rural areas to cities for a job in factory. If the factory offers them place to live and free meals, they can send the money back home every month. These money could be used to support their poor parents and school expense for kid brothers/sisters. If overtime work can make more money, they will do that without hesitate. To them, the most important thing is to survive rather than sexual or family time. The only concern in this case is whether they are forced to do that by the factory authority? It's negative. So what should we blaim? Blaim those young workers should not work 60 hours a week? Would it be better if they don't go to such "inhuman" factory and go back home for $200 a year? You may have the answer now.
