A Chinese factory employee set fire to a textile plant in China’s southwestern Sichuan province in his frustration over unpaid wages of just 800 yuan (or US$111), according to videos posted on social media and eyewitness accounts shared with Radio Free Asia.
This is how you do it!
“just 800 yuan (or US$111)”
“just”
Fuck man, I’d go ballistic over $111 of unpaid wages, and that’s probably a bigger chunk of that employee’s monthly wages than mine.

With west you mean usa? Most of Europe gets paid on a monthly basis.
My first reaction was “That’s not very much - guess they should have paid him!”
I doubt they actually owe ¥800 in total, because they could have just pay 99 other workers ¥8 less and can still pay this person ¥792, this way, the factory owner only owes ¥8 to 100 different individuals rather than oweing ¥800 to one individual. I doubt someone is gonna do arson for ¥8 delayed payment.
So I assume they probably owe other employees as well. Just to illustrate:
If they owe ¥800 to 100 employees, each.
That’s ¥80 000 Yuan/RMB ≈ $11 140 USD
A lot of debt.
We should all strive to be more like this man.

Power to the people!
To quote the CCP (which is ironic, given they are the oppressors): “革命无罪，造反有理！” (Revolution is not a Crime, Rebellion is Just!)
Milton, is that you?
I believe you have my stapler
Should have given him his $111
800 yuan to this person could be equivalent to the entire factory for the company
Should have just given the man his stapler.
