    Actually, it is even worse. In one of the videos, a child labourer was paid $3.25 per week.

    Quota of 150 per hour, paid $3.25 a week, 12 hour shifts. They get physically and verbally abused on a good day.

    As for evidence, there are absolutely tons of it. Google will fill you with hits.

    It is a shocking and depressing state of affairs, and I think some posters in this thread sum up the ignorant attitude typical of the west perfectly.
