Well I guess a lot can change with money...
The worse people are payed, the more they are prone to exploitation no?
I mean, lots of comparatively wealthy people are under some pretty horrible working conditions, so I don't know that I would call the two tightly linked.
Sure, Foxconn should probably pay at rates that are livable for their workers, but the more acute problem is probably to not drive their workers so hard that they attempt suicide.
