54. When one corporation is allowed to use slave labor, and use labor controls that are crimes,

then it forces every other competing corporation to use those same criminal methods. We have a race to the most brutal and corrupt labor practices that can be devised. It's only going to get worse. Look how Newt wants to turn poor 2nd graders into janitors.

If these same methods of forced labor were used in the US, the people involved would go to jail. Just because computer corporations do it in a communist country, does NOT make it any less of a crime.

Allowing one corporation to get away with this sort of slavery, guarantees all the corporations will pursue the same methods. Criminal activity is an advantage in business. The other corporations must follow the same criminal model or lose in the market place. Hence the race for the most corrupt and abusive labor practices ever devised.
