      China literally does this fairly frequent. They executed the CEO of a baby formula company that was cutting their milk with chalk

        Not chalk, melamine powder, which caused the deaths of multiple infants. Meanwhile America just had a baby formula scandal and the CEO got a slap on the wrist.

        They haven't done it to Foxconn though and it's overdue. Working conditions at Foxconn have sucked for 15+ years

          I replied elsewhere, but Foxconn being based in the province of Taiwan and a key business partner for Imperial core capitalists makes it politically dangerous to regulate.

          China has taken action against them frequently, but Foxconn is aware they have leverage. Most Americans cannot name another Chinese manufacturing company, which should tell you something about how valuable they are to American interests.
