Those horrible capitalists, taking advantage of the poor...

...so what do the left offer other than false hope and an opportunity to join the taxpayer funded sob industry?

Without a strong voice for workers rights, you get capitalists like these coming out on top (because they can do it cheaper).

A string of arrests have been made over the collapse of a factory complex in Bangladesh which has killed at least 363 people, as exhausted rescuers battled to find more survivors among the corpses.

Police arrested three factory owners and two engineers after prime minister Sheikh Hasina vowed those responsible for the country's deadliest industrial disaster would be hunted down.

Proprietors Bazlus Samad and Mahmudur Rahman Tapash were detained soon after midnight on Saturday, while Aminul Islam - the owner of two factories based in the doomed building - was arrested Saturday night.

They faced preliminary charges of causing death by negligence, police said.

...

Senior investigating officer Kaiser Matubbor said two municipal engineers who gave the building the all-clear after an inspection on Tuesday were also arrested and could face charges of death due to negligence.

With many of Bangladesh's 4,500 factories shut due to protests, bosses declared Saturday and Sunday a holiday.

Workers rights aren't going to stop corrupt govt engineers approving unsafe buildings. In this case, its obvious that the buck stops with the govt and their civil engineers whose duty is to be the watchdog for unscrupulous builders who cut corners.

Workers rights have nothing to do with this.
This is more about the corruption of govt regulators.

Some 2,500 people have been rescued alive but hundreds are still missing, and voices of survivors have now faded from the twisted wreck.

Totally worth it, for cheap tees though.
