    996 is not legal either and yet many companies did that. I’m sure many still do, it’s a hypercapitalist country just like the US.

        It’s just more affordable. Companies are still more important than people unfortunately.

          Gov is not dictated by corps or oil companies. There are plenty of legislations and regulations that prevent fiendish capitalism behavior to some extenct. Authoritarian gov with smart leader

            When they get caught.

            The Chinese government most likely helped cover up the baby formula melamine scandal… Until it became big enough that they had to take action and then people got executed.

            Tesla was nearly immune to lawsuits before China’s own EV production really kicked off. People died, family members sued Tesla, lost, had to pay Tesla for defamation.

            They’ll throw private individuals under the bus to protect corporations until things become too public.
