In doing our social action project, it has gotten me thinking about the suicides at Foxconn. It poses a lot of questions. Does employees losing their lives not strike a cord with the owners? Do the other employees try to stop the suicides? How could they not try to stop the suicides sooner? Why did it take eighteen attempted suicides for it to get people's attention? The answer to these questions are anything but simple. The owners definitely could have done something to prevent the suicides. After the second person that should have triggered something and made them investigate and wonder. Didn't they think of the worker's families? Or the lives that they were leaving behind because of their working conditions. Why did it have to take multiple suicides for them to even put up nets? The people at Foxconn are selfish and apparently heartless. To know that eighteen people wanted their lives to end because of the working conditions that the owners lay out for them is disheartening and needs to change. Hopefully our social action project can have some effect on the situation. Even though we are only six people in a school of less than four thousand, we are hoping that through the student body and the power of the internet that we can make a change or at least make some steps towards a change.
