A useful datapoint in the ongoing debate on the minimum wage:

The punch line is: "The per-employee profit at Apple is $407,000. For big
retailers, it's $6,300. No wonder Wal-Mart feels the pinch of its pay
increase."
Well, that's the difference between MAKING something, and merely SELLING
something made by somebody else.

But, I'm also guessing that the per employee figure does NOT include the
(many) thousands of people at FoxConn in China that are building Apple's
products.

What does Apple "make"? They just slap their brand on Chinese phones and collect the money. Much like Nike or many others.

You're an idiot with no clues about Apple products and why they often work better. Start with Applle OS X. Is that a Chinese product, moron? Apple's designs are often significantly better and OS X is way better than Android.
