Those price comparisions should deal with those facts too..
The maximum a Chinese factory worker gets per month is $206 that's why I just lost my job making solar panels at SolarWorld after 8 years. That plant has been there for more than 30 years. Some of the workers had been working there for more than 30 years. Why did it close? The executives said the Chinese are flooding the market with cheap solar panels. I can't imagine Nokia is somehow immune to this pressure.
