I suppose it would be way less if you only compared to U.S. prisons labor, but a race to the bottom is not to be admired.

- ferguess_k 11mo agoI think if the labor cost is a small part of total cost, it might be more valuable to investigate the roughly 1:2 output per worker. Some possibilities, none confirmed: - Chinese workers work 2 shifts instead of 3 shifts, so the factory simply hires less workers. This should also show a difference of total output of cars; - Chinese factory has better processes or/and automation, which is more interesting.
