The document discusses a video about Apple's factory in China. It notes that while the assembly of electronic devices like iPhones is done largely by hand, the young workers are paid very little and live in harsh conditions despite working long hours. They deserve better compensation for their important role in manufacturing devices that have made Apple such a successful and wealthy company.

APPLE’S FACTORY IN CHINA What has really surprised me about the video is the fact that the                           electronic devices are assembled by hand, because I thought that                     having such a large production would require doing everything using                     machines. It is really impressive that really young people are carrying                       out such a complex process, but it doesn’t seem very fair to me that                             they all work really hard, and still they are not very well paid, they live in                                 extremely harsh conditions and work a lot of hours a day. They should                           be rewarded for what they do, but instead they don’t have enough                         money to maintain themselves and their families. The video says that                       most of the workers had never seen a device from the company actually                           working, and that mustn't be very nice. Apple is a really well-known                         company all over the world and they get a lot of benefits, so they ought                               to share a bigger part of the money with the people that have made the                               existence of these gadgets possible.
