This post is especially important I think…
*The entire article is grossly misleading. It is not the Chicoms who are poisoning America, it is AMERICAN COMPANIES who unscrupulously chose to use China as a manufacturing base and import shoddy merchadise to U.S. of A. *
*Poisoning of America by American companies has a long history. That’s why FDA was invented. *
*Uranium-coloured Fiestaware is my favorite. Or idea to use Depleted uranium to make ovens and household items (hopefully never realized). I am sure that an average American would never buy crappy and shoddy merchadise under Chinese trade names. *
*But back in ole GreatWall mart, with all this garbage gets familiar American household names and passport to our homes. *
It is not red Chairman Hu Jintao who is poisoning America, but chairmans of the boards of the most distinguished blue chip companies. Who stole American jobs and gave us garbage in return.

Will we ever learn?
14 people look at this thread and not one single comment. What the hell?
replying to my own post…geez…that’s cool.
One must have patience. Unless one learns better trolling methods… 
Now, go out and buy some cheap junk. When you come back there will be a few responses to your post.

hitting a little too close to home for some people? Or do people just not care?
Heard on NPR this morning that the results of a recent study find that 60% of all recalled products in the US are manufactured in China. 60%!! Why do we (Americans) continue to support this and their economy?
The basis of the report was about the Thomas the Trains and the lead paint used from 2005 to 2007 and about exposure to children and the lack of corporate responsibility. What about the Chinese factory workers who’ve been exposed to the lead paint? Anyone care about them?
Does anyone care at all? Enough to start changing their buying habits? I’m certainly going to try.
Man, you are really fishing hard. You aren’t Roland Martin are you?
Enough to start changing their buying habits? **I’m certainly going to try. **
Well, if you didn’t have bad buying habits in the first place, you wouldn’t have anything to change now, would you?
I suspect you also don’t read food information labels in the supermarket.
Talk about redneck references. You’re living too close to the Arkansas border. Get yourself up the road to Springfield and get ya’ some culture. Up being North, not South to the other Springfield. That would be worse.
:o)
I do actually. We buy mostly organic and almost no packaged foods. Our garden supplies us with vegetables, our chickens with eggs and we eat little to no red meat. But I’ve certainly purchased “junk” in the past to save a buck or two - all I’m saying is, armed with this information I’m going to try to make better purchasing decisions.
It can’t happen all the time, but if more and more people start making smart purchases then the market for cheap junk will slowly diminish. Personally, I’m ok with that.
Thank God someone is making up for my habit of buy cheap crap from Wal-Mart that is obviously made by toddlers in China who are forced to work 20 hours a day for pennies. I feel like your organic, no packaged foods, garden eating, chicken hatching, no red meat eating ass is making up for my obvious failures.
I feel so much better, I think I will put on my Nikes and drive my Dodge Ram down to Starbucks and get a quad expresso so as to hop me up for a shopping spree at Wal-Mart, then on to the grocery store to buy some hot dogs and pizza bites!
such hostility. I hope you feel better. :o)
were you a bully in grade school per chance?

No, did you miss the ‘’;)‘’ or are you just dense?

I did miss the so I guess I am dense.

Heard the same story. CPC also said that all 27 toys recalled were from china. Well, not sure if you checked, but all toys are made in China, as are a significant number of other products. The fact that 60% of products recalled are from China means nothing in and of itself.
That said, I have spent a significant amount of time in China and working with Chinese suppliers. I am not worried about china becoming the “super-power” that everyone is talking about. Once their currency is free from government manipulation, and allowed to float, their price advantage will disappear and people will go elsewhere. For what its worth, I have heard from many sourcing execs that China is yesterday’s news and becoming too expensive…
BTW, the guy that ran the chinese FDA during the toothpaste and pet-food debacle, got the death-peanalty
