Sadly, not American made, because great American companies like Apple don't want to pay you. There's much more profit to be had using slave labor and suicide nets. Steve Jobs was such a wonderful man.

Ho Ho Ho!

Ho Ho yourself. You are typing on a computer made by the same company or one just like it. If computers like the one you are using were being made by unionized auto workers making a "living wage" you couldn't afford it. They would still be for the elite. Yet now nearly everyone on welfare has a cell phone. So if you claim Steve Jobs was not a nice man, you're in the same catagory because you are taking advantage of the "slave labor" as well.

No need to worry, though. It won't be long before all these Chinese "slave laborers" won't be slaves any more. They'll be out of a job that will be taken over by robots. Indeed, there is a lot of buzz about all those manufacturing jobs coming back here--but they'll be done by robots. The computers will still be cheap, though.

Would just like to point out what a load on nonsense the whole suicide problem was. The suicide rate among workers at foxconn is well below the overall suicide rate of china. In other words, a chinese person working at foxconn is less likely to commit suicide than one who does not work there.

But yet they still do have the suicide nets.
