I knew that he commited suicide today, and I found that, neither he nor his friend are responsible for the tragedy, despite the fact that his friend supplied toxic paint to him. The one responsible, uh, those cross country coperations

The China State forces the manufactures to cut costs? No. Definitely not. China is going to follow the road of free economy, which means that, the supply and demand rocks and counts in the market. The higher you set the price, the lower the quantity transacted is, and vise versa. (Knowing the PRC government fames itself for following the communism / socialism, I feel that, following this road is quite sarcastic)
The one responsible are the CEO of cross-country coperations. They offer low prices to the factory owners, so that they can earn every single penny possible and gain the lion share! No sooner did a problem arise then they put the blame on those innocent workers.
Imagine you buy a barbie doll for $10, but a major part, like $9.5 goes to the retailers' pockets. Only $0.5 goes to the factory. In this way, notwithstanding the low input by capital, the factory can't ensure the quality of the good provided that, can they? Before you blame anyone, please look at the full part of the story. Is it justice to blame someone just because you've read part of the story?
Furthermore, as what I've said, poisoning the customer is the perfect way to wand them off. That we won't do it if the input via those coperations, is a fact.
Selfish as she is, American government won't tell you this part of story. But I think you should have the right to know this important, yet omitted part.
