I doubt there's much difference. The ones in Utah might be more sanitary, because health inspectors come sometimes. There's still seemingly no limit to the physical, verbal, sexual, labor, or starvation abuse that they can get away with.

The facilities will keep kids past 18, too. The kids have no access to regulators or lawyers.

This is an important thing to think about with international trade. Any time we import things that we could produce ourselves, we are putting our labor in competition with the other country's labor.
If we want our workers to have good wages and rights, then we should only be trading with countries that provide that to their workers.
Trading with a bunch of countries that use child labor, trash wages, and even slaves is driving down the value of our work.
