Foxconn the company that dominates its workers with grueling hours and hard labor, is a company that doesn't think of how they are affecting others, they are only thinking about themselves and how much money they can make.
Foxconn jobs attract a lot of poor people, because they need a job and Foxconn lies to them and tells them that they will give them all these benefits but they are just lieng to them.
The workhouse in Oliver Twist is a lot like Foxconn, because they have a lot of poor people (orphans) working for them and they treat them like dirt and make them do things that are to hard for them. If the orphans don't do what is expected they get beat, just like in Foxconn if the workers don't meet expectation they have "consequences."
The two are alike in many ways, they both have poor workers, they both treat their workers bad, and they both are menacing in the way they run their operations.

Foxconn (Persuasive)
The company Foxconn (the makers of almost every popular electronic device produced to the world) is a very big company who pretty much has the power to do what they want.
The first thing they do morally wrong is that they lie to their employees on what they will be doing and what they will be paid just so the people will work for them.
What Foxconn does to people and how they are running things is not morally right, but I think Foxconn should not be stopped, because the price of the iPad/iPhone/iPod etc. is already high enough that we should be thankful for the people who make them.
If the employees of Foxconn don't want to endure the misfortune of the job than they should not work for Foxconn.
I do though feel sorry for the workers because I wouldn't want to have to work so many hours or be forced to do things that are to hard for me, because it isn't right for someone to have to work for so many hours without a break. But if you don't want the consequences of the job don't join Foxconn.
