QuoteThe children, as young as 8 years old, were kept in rooms approximately six feet by six feet and had been forced to work up to 19-hour days making the decorations, which advocates believe may have been intended to be sold on the cheap in the United States.

Yes, once again our pessimism has turned out to be idiotically optimistic.

You can't buy a century like this.  Erm.  Yes, actually you can.  It was made by little Yang Li, and delivered straight to your door via Amazon.com.

If you buy two more, it qualifies for free shipping and Yang Li gets a crust of bread and thirty minutes to sleep, eat, and use the bathroom before his next shift.

I hate to see what they get if someone only throws in $5. Probably a whipping.

Not all is lost! Well. Maybe. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/best-buy-sends-customers-5-201100187.html

QuoteA Best Buy customer ordered an iPad and was shocked when a box filled with five of them showed up at her door.

She reached out to the Consumerist for help, and they contacted Best Buy. They told her to keep them.

"We, here at Best Buy, acknowledge that we obviously made a mistake, but in the spirit of the holidays, we encourage you to keep the additional iPads and give them to people in need – friends, family, a local school or charity," Best Buy responded.

Now if only the cheap slave labor that made those iPads gets to keep their bread crusts and water rations as compensation for the work they did, despite the lost income, everything works out for, right?
