Thank you, once again, for making my point.

No sir, I rebutted everyone of your "points". . . and showed you were wrong. Hypocrite.

I had the underage discussion with another Freeper not too long ago. Apple had an independent outside agency audit its supply chain of over 1.2 million workers over a seven year period in 2013 and they found a total of 419 underage workers during that time. . . the majority of them at that company from which Apple PULLED that two billion dollar contract for not cooperating with Apple's labor standards. Most of the 419 underage workers discovered had used counterfeit IDs to secure employment. In other words, mad_as_he$$, it was NOT a company policy to employ underage workers.

Apple has in its contracts a requirement that any underage worker found working on an Apple assembly line must be educated with a FULL ride scholarship including living expenses at a University by the offending company until age 25. This is intended as a disincentive to discourage the deliberate hiring of underage workers. It works. Strangely on 37% of the underage workers accepted the scholarships, usually due to family pressures to work instead.

Sorry, you are again wrong.
