Hiring them?  No.  But that's far from what most of these corporations
do in countries like China.  They quite literally chain people to
workbenches in small windowless rooms and force them to work 12 hours
per day.  Of course, the 'nice' companies merely keep the employees in
perpetual debt via the good old-fashioned 'company store', thereby
preventing them from ever quitting because if they do so, they
immediately go to jail.  

But please, feel free to continue with your fantasy that forcing 12
year olds to work 14 hours per day making Nike shoes is a 'good'
thing.
