"Do you suggest we shut down all of these companies too?" Yes. Allowing it because "everyone else is doing it" doesn't make it right.

    Suicide stats are particularly odd in China, go to the statistics section: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_in_China https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_in_China Also, looking at: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn_suicides https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn_suicides "The total number of Foxconn employee suicides is unknown." If the total deaths are not reported how can we compare?

      > If the total deaths are not reported how can we compare? So if I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying we don't have to data to even determine whether or not there's a problem. At the same time, you're willing to shutter the vast majority of the world's consumer computer hardware businesses over it?

          You're the one saying we don't have the data. And trying to backpedal your way out it by highlighting a single sob story.
