Apple doesn’t just make stuff in China; its sales there are booming, too
Some say Apple should copy an idea from Henry Ford. The great American carmaker paid his employees enough to afford a Model T. Will the workers who assemble iPads one day be able to own one?

And removing the “sweatshop” stigma might help its global reputation.
