Yes, it's a tough life, but people actually pick that life because other options are tougher (for example being a rural farmer somewhere).

It is true that we should care about conditions in factories such as these and work to improve them. It's also true that if you insisted that Chinese workers get paid what American workers would, there would have been almost no factories and the entire country would still be in desolate poverty. Yes if there were no factories then probably the environment would be in a better condition.

It's a very complex situation. Just picking one angle to it and insisting that angle holds the whole truth does not help anyone.

It's weird to hear you say insisting on one angle does not help anyone.
