    Perhaps I’m a bit biased by what I’ve read about Foxconn and other large companies over there but nothing has given me the impression they value workers. Japan doesn’t seem to value it’s workers either, given the work culture most places still have.

      I’m not talking about individuals or localized culture, but overarching national policy. Things like affordable housing, transportation, medical, education, and infrastructure that support a growing society. The USA has massive decline in all but the top percent. No one has it all figured out and there will always be political pariahs. I’m looking at the lack of public transit infrastructure, corrupt housing policies, corporate privateering, open corruption in all high levels of government, and primarily the ability of 750 billionaires to fund and prevent legislation and progress for close to the last half century.
