First off, Dawn, awesome name-dropping for Rock of Ages. I too have my reservations about a movie adaptation of what I don’t think is a great muscial, but I digress…
Kris, your point about people screaming about free-range chicken turning a blind-eye to harsh factory conditions of Apple product manufacturers was scary coincidental to the thought I had at that moment about a past FOT piece “free range employees.” And I think Dawn’s right, conpanies like Apple, or any company that’s not treating employees well by providing safe working conditions in favor of higher margins will continue to do so until people vote with their wallets, demand change, and stop shopping there/buying their products. (This isn’t me judging, but I do not have an iPhone, however; I am only somewhat concerned about free range chicken–this isn’t Portlandia).
