The part of Maquilapolis that hit me with a serious feeling of anger at the injustice these female laborers faced was listening to the story of the woman who was elated to have won only 2000 dollars in a settlement. This made her and her co workers happy because most people had received less that a quarter of this from the same company.
The true cowardice and repugnancy of these manufacturing of these companies is seen most clearly when she later goes the the site of the factory where she was employed. She is met by the man whose family rented the building, and he tells her that she has been lied to. That she did not become unemployed because of the company going bankrupt, but because they left the factory to avoid paying taxes.
