But, but we are spreading democracy through capitalism, making a profit and circumventing those evil unions, while giving Americans the always low prices they crave for so they can fill up their homes with things they don't need with(credit) money they don't have.

And if you are against this you are nothing more than a commie, socialist, tree hugging, pinko bastard that hates America.:hmm:

 

[RabidMongoose]

This is really sad.

 

[OverVolt]

Yea, wow. All of that for some decorations.

Materialism is not sustainable.
Capitalism will eventually become too "top heavy" and topple on it's own.

iCrap gadgets for iTard americans. Easily mesmerized by any iGadget and assured they need it by mass marketing. Gives them something to do while they wait for their mass marketed fast food.

Have any of you guys actually read the article? The OP included? It's not about iDevices or some guy complaining about making holiday crap for Americans for a holiday that they don't understand.

It's about a guy crying for help because he was forced to make this product in a Chinese labor camp that also employs torture and abduction/confinement without trial of political dissidents and generally anyone the Chinese government doesn't like. The item was some cheap Halloween decorations bought from Kmart 5 years ago and was never opened until now.

You can tell by the level of English that this guy is at least pretty educated - no one who is uneducated writes English like this. Just last night I helped a Peking University student (Peking U is one of the top universities in China) critique an English resume and his English is on par with the letter.

Did you read the article?

Most likely the writer is long dead by now.

I don't know, it's quite adept at keeping most people at a point where they can consume just enough, and so therefore they don't get angry enough about the system to want to bother to do anything about it.

This political prisoner in this Chinese slave labor camp is exactly the kind of world that O'Bamma would like to create. That way he could silence all his critics. This is why we need a ban on all Chinese Products.

Agreed, They cause far too much trouble for the rest of the world.

But that guy is an idiot, he steals the job from Americans and then complains?

We really need to stop doing business with countries that dont meet our own working standards.

So how is this Chinese prison camp for political dissidents any different that the liberals here who wish death on those who disagree with them?

I mean other than that the Chinese have to balls to back up their words.

I was unaware one poster represented a whole group. In that case, I could say that conservatives wish to kill all gays by a post you made.

Except I have never called for killing all gays.

But you quoted the bible verse in defense of it. Must mean you agree with what it said.

I hope you aren't serious.

It's fucking sad if the letter is legit. I am inclined to believe it is.

I agree its sad. But it seems like the Chinese just have the balls to actually setup the liberal utopia.

But you quoted the bible verse in defense of it. Must mean you agree with what it said.

The point of discussion was whether the OT was opposed to homosexuality or not.

I quoted the bible verse showing that the bible clearly was opposed to homosexuality.

Hes not a slave, so if its that bad then quit and he could stop bitching while hes at it. As crummy as the pay is for him, it would be a small fortune to a ethiopian who does not have the American-made opportunity to make ornaments for Americans at those low low prices we have come to expect.

I hate to break it to the average Chinese peseant, but the reason they are the fastest growing economy is because they make cheap shit for Americans and everyone else.

Pretending their labor laws are our problem is a joke.

And supporting those labor laws show that you basically support slavery. Out if sight, out of mind? NIMBY?

I support the free market. Because of this "slavery" (which you used incorrectly), the Chinese have the fastest growing middle class and purchasing power in the world. Soon their GDP will surpass ours.

I am assuming you purchased nothing from Wal-Mart or Target for Xmas this year, or else you are also supporting "Slavery"
