iRage: Apple's FoxConn China Plant Damaged As Riots Resume
Following the riots at Apple's FoxConn Chengdu plant in June, engadget is reporting that FoxConn's Taiyuan plant - the scene of earlier strikes over salary disputes back in March - has suffered damage as workers riot. Police are on site to control the crowd and while the motive is not clear, it is apparently unrelated to the recent anti-Japan protests. It appears - based on the clip and photos below - that much damage has been done in the process.

Won't need suicide nets either- the sharks will clean up the problem.
I deplore how these companies’ subject third world workers to deplorable working conditions and low wages. However, I won't give up my IPhone in protest. After all, being cool by having the latest IPhone is much more important than my social conscience.
We look for Japan dogs who stole our Islands but useless mapping system on iPhone 5 send us here instead....
At least in China, the PEOPLE realize they have power to make a difference. If people in "the west" realized this the banking industry and the central banking mobsters would be destroyed with financial revolt...
fight back: shop locally owned business ONLY, pay cash ONLY.
Hoard: gold, silver, nickels (liquidate all other coin - throw away pennies, force treasury to remake pennies)
get off the dope man.
"... much damage has been done" -- yeah, that guard shack by the gate is a total loss.
LOL, and those knocked-over barricades...oooohhhh. That visual is gonna stick in my head for a long, long time.
So good to see that people are able to protest in China. They wouldn't try to protest like that in the US. iProtest. Long live the Chinese. Repudiate all patents and copyrights. Free the people from the control freak scum. Down with Apple. Which of course has nothing whatsoever to do with the FED's software that generates the graphs of Apple's stock price and the Nasdaq or Apple's accounting for that matter. Or the banks. Yes the f'n banks. They are responsible for the worldwide chaos descending upon humankind. First the Arabs go after the banksters now the Chinese and next the Europeans and finally, DHS not prevailing, the US. Peace on earth and angels sing. Long live the revolution.
chinese protest when their commie mandarin masters tell them to. When they do it on their own they become stuck in the boot treads of mongolian storm troopers. be real.

Foxconn is a Chinese gulag.
I wonder homany fat fuck Amerikans can work at Foxconn. Not very many , I must say. Whiny azz bastards in the USSA>
I wonder how many fat Amerikans who are unemployed and can pick strawberries in CA are doing so?
Not very many, as in just about none.
Work outside, fresh air....
Whiny bastards in the USA.
Yowza boss, we be goin' Forward!
Yes, the migrants are still the only ones topping corn here in Idaho. They are also the only ones paying cash for used cars.

A fuckin gadget,WTF.Get me of this fuckin planet.
iFruckU
Harvest is coming Bitchez!
Whoa! How funny you should say that!
Off Topic, sorry, but needed lead-in:
There is some speculation that the earth is a 'ZOO', watched over by our 'Alien Keepers'.
CUI BONO?! WHAT IF instead of a zoo, the earth is a 'stockyard'? "Go forth, breed, and cover the land." (Genetic mutations ALL favor sexual reproduction)
What if there truly IS a harvest coming, and WE'RE IT!?
Is this a (Chinese) Govt. approved riot or a spontaneous riot?
Spontaneously approved riot...no i-shots were fired ;-)
riot ap
fuuk u!
Okay, okay - half a kidney, then.
iPhone 5, and you still cant eat it
And Barry thought he was fooling the proles with those faux complaints about the Chinese automotive industry. The Chinese showing Barry what's going to happen to America's most "important" company unless he backs off. And Romney baiting Barry to respond with his faux "China cheating" campaign commercials.
iCrap, then I feel better.....
good for the workers....the western behemoth corporations run slave labor camps all throughout asia and the chicoms are all too happy to sell their people for slave wages.....slavery is back with a vengeance....nike is another slave holding empire....i will never buy nike and the sick argument that it only hurts the workers can be shoved straight up nike's fat arrogant ass...
Ok, let's suppose it doesn't hurt the workers.
But, does it help them?
Why would they strike and riot when they can save more in one year, $7600-10k, than any middle or lower class American could possibly save? I don't even get free room and board in my Mom's basement under the capitalist system.
Was wondering the same..
Guessing it's those rich kids playing virtual-mahjiang on there iphones without need of a job. They just leach of the robots who manufacture them 12 hours a day in the plant.
That, plus the fact that life's probably not all that fun on 10k anywhere in China. (Just guessing).
That's approx $600+ per month. A ligit iphone4s is $700 - $1000 in China
You couldn't stand a day, Foxconn assembly-line workers make $400 a month, or $4800 a year or 6 Iphones without contract a year.
Break SA platinum miner's strike with Chinese coal miners and Foxconn scabs ! CNN World Without Borders .... work belongs to the workers of the world !
Alas, alas, triple alas for 'americans' who are used to practising this kind of tricks as shown by history.
'Americans' will have to find other people than chinese or kiss goodbye to one share of their profits as employing Chinese will cost more than raising the wages of those SA miners.
in 'american' economics, work does not belong to the workers of the world but to 'americans' and then only to the lower bidder, the cheaper offer.
Chineses are no longer that.
That is the reality of the 'american' world the world lives in.
And the reality of a chinese world is oh so much better, prease pontificate
Is there an app for this?
Apple died when Steve Jobs did... most don't realize that yet.
One of many Foxconn, em, "employees".
China unrest ! It's just sinking in they were duped into buying all that Capitalist paper and will never be able to convert it to Capitalist gold ! Our Jews ran "circles" around naive Commies .... hence Apple HQ and British Data Center .... look like Stonehedge "circles" from above .... to commemorate the "Zerohedge Moment" ! Don't fuck with my Jews unless you want to circle jerk and you're 18 years old or have a note from your local Red Guard ! Fox = Jew Conn = Connecticut SONY = Sounds Of New York Connecticut = Surgical procedure to reverse male genitalia mutilation !
Not impressed. Show me some destroyed wave soldering machines and a few trashed Fuji lines.
When dire times come and that you are an extorter of the weak and farmer of the work, the conventional solution is to pass down the pain to the extorted and the farmed.
'Americans' run a business of extorting the weak, farming the poor on a world scale.
The US is the mecca of 'americanism' and the world is organized so that the US is the ultimate consumption sink.
Everyone is entitled to see the ripples of 'americans' running the conventional procedure in order to avoid feeling the pain.
As stated already, the US will be exempted from social unrest as the causes are exported elsewhere.
Nothing matches the proof by the example, courtesy of 'americans'.
This is an 'american' world and a US world order.
I'm not sure but are you referring to Americans? If you could crarify it would be greatry appreciated.
Your googish culture is sorrily not the one to be disparaging others. i think i speak for the rest of the planet when i say the last thing 6.5 billion others ever want to see is bus loads of you rolling up to a tourist destination in purple descente ski suits and cameras. It took a couple decades but the japanese finally went home. Please just keep shitting in your own nest, stay where you are and everything will work out just fine, oh and keep hoarding steel.
First the Americans and now the Chinese have jobs that they don't want to do.
AAPL weekly & monthly overextended parabolic charts are at
EXTREME levels.
This will end in tears and naive longs will be badly burnt.

Don't worry I hear China is building an entire mfg city in the USA that is outside of regulations. And since corporations are people now..........well you get the idea.
