Correct. It was American corporations putting up suicide nets around the facilities they owned that were exploiting rural Chinese people that didn't fully understand their rights under Chinese law, and once again American corporate oligarchy flexed their influence to convince gullible Americans that this is somehow a failing of the Chinese government instead of American corporations doing what they always do, which is squeeze workers to the point of exhaustion.
