“I find this particular situation a symptom of a larger disease that we are trying to deal with. They are saying there was a violation of three articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

It is obvious that China does not want it, but I think it is becoming more and more apparent that the major corporations in the United States who do business in China do not want China to have labor standards either. If citizens of the regime in China try to unionize, they will be arrested, they will be beaten, they will be tortured.”
