If it says Made in China, I don't buy. It's that simple.

wow....

where are you shopping?

you can't even buy clothes in higher end retail stores without the 'made in china' lable

i used to think you could get away from the inferior quality of some chinese made garments with sticking with 'designer' names, but more and more i'm finding it increasingly difficult

the quality isn't as good and most particularly they aren't getting the sizing correct....i recently ordered an anne klein suit, and when i got it the sleeves were way too short, over all the jacket just didn't fit right....i compared it to another jacket i had bought years ago, same manufacturer, same size....but the new one was WAY off...i looked inside and there it was.... 'made in china'

The propaganda is working. For 35 years China has shipped goods to the USA. And the goods must be getting better (that's the same path Japan and Korea went through). Suddenly, everyone's loved ones are in danger (dogs, children). What is the next emotional button? Notice how "human rights" and China are not mentioned together after Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib.

So why are you using your computer?

That is one of the most ignorant posts I've ever come across.

Sorry, but you earned it.

They send us lead tainted toys and we send them toxic AAA rated paper. It all works out the end.

Alec, look your dumb wife already blew 20 million buying a city and running it into the ground, the gubbment already took your kid from you and gave to that dumb blonde too - now you want to blame CHINA for all these bad products out there. It's not their fault - its the big companies and the dumb citizens all over the globe that go buy that stuff and it aint just coming out of china- if the dumb blondes like your ex wife would stop buying this bad stuff or just COPY and STEAL it like the chinese do your movies Mr. Baldwin - then things wouldn't be so bad eh? Hey I loved you in that movie MALICE - you are the best Alec - my hero!
