Testo Shadow Buisness

- When you over in American Samoa, what¦what surprised you the most? - I guess what hit me the most is the condition of the factory that the workers were in: The factory was surrounded by a fence and barbed wire on top and on the bottom. And they have a chain-linked fence surround the whole factory and, and dormitory compound. The gate has a has a guard shack, where the guard sit there and control the worker movement in and out of the.. of the factory - The factory are made of ahm.. tin panels with tin roof. Its really hot. The temperature over there is verily ninety degrees and inside the factory or the dormitory it reaches way over a hundred degrees. [Verse 1]: Yeah Its the contemporary form of slavery, they call it slave labour But they don't prosecute them cuz it's how they make paper When you rocking that fly shit thats made in China By an eight year old child tryna feed his mama He exposed to contamination and disease And only fifty-five percent of them will get degrees And the women have to try to placate the boss Because its sex discrimination in the labour force The slave master only let them speak in sign language And they're suffering from lung disease and eye damage fourteen hour shifts, seven days a week two shitty meals a day, very little sleep Human life only worth three cents an hour All human right laws lose sense of power What did four hundred years in the grave passes? Only the improved cleverness of slave masters. [Chorus]: Is life worth living if you living in hell? When the mind is confined to a prisoners cell? And the lies they devise in the system that fail But I expect the system to fail! Is life worth living if you living in hell? When the mind is confined to a prisoners cell? And the lies they devise in the system that fail But I expect the system to fail! - Many Chinese workers are forced to sign secret agreements, known as shadow contracts, before they leave China, severely and, in some ways, illegally restricting their activities while on American soil. Workers are forbidden to participate in any religious or political activity or to ask for a salary increase or even to fall in love or get married. [Verse 2]: Its one point six million people locked in jail They do new slave labour force trapped in hell They generate over a billion dollars worth to power And only getting paid twenty cents an hour They make cloths for McDonalds and for Apple Bees And working fourteen hour shifts in prison factories And while we sit around debating who the wack emcee is They have to work when arthritic pain attack the knees Slavery is not illegal, thats a fucking lie! It is illegal, unless its for conviction of a crime The main objective is to get you in your fucking prime. And keep the prison full and not give you a fucking dime But they the real criminal keeping you confined For a petty crime but they give you two-to-nine And aint nobody there to protect ya Except a bunch of incompetent human rights inspectors [Chorus]: Is life worth living if you living in hell? When the mind is confined to a prisoners cell? And the lies they devise in the system that fail But I expect the system to fail! Is life worth living if you living in hell? When the mind is confined to a prisoners cell? And the lies they devise in the system that fail But I expect the system to fail! - The sweatshop situationâ??s kind of cohesive and kind of take advantage on the people that are poor and at an economic disadvantage. - This Chinese woman made T-shirts and pants at the factory until she became pregnant. - When I told them I was pregnant, they told me to have an abortion.. - Tu Xiao Mei says she refused to have the abortion and has now been barred from entering the factory. - To allow them to bring that on to US soil is a very deep concern. We've now documented the facts that management coerces female workers who become pregnant into having abortions. - But human rights workers say it's common practice - Inside that factory Chinese law applies, and Chinese law isâ?¦ is supreme - Even though it's the United States of America? - The flag doesn't fly inside there.
