And how haven't we jailed the people who got paid off to not notice this?

This is the saddest part... from bribes to lobbying (legal bribes, a true WTF in it's own sense)...

Criminals are going to bribe, sure, undestandable.. but people, government employees, who should be working for 'us', the taxpayers, are taking bribes... the punishment for them should be a vastly higher than for someone just offering a bribe... and somehow, (usually) nothing ever happens to them... maybe someone loses their job, but that's it.

Absolutely, it is impossible for no one to notice this.

That factory should have a managers at least. They should be in jail.

These aren't H1B people. Labor and agriculture visas are a lot easier to come by.

Or, in some cases, they use illegal labor. I doubt that the federal government gave a work visa to the 13-year-old in the article.

For the ones doing it legally, L visas. For the ones doing it illegally, B or F visas.
