Been to the store lately? Noticed how everything is made in China? Soon they will build all our cars, and motorcycles too!

Yes......

I have been concerned about this for quite a while. It's fine to say you won't
buy their products but in many cases you don't have a choice :(

How could you possibly have a trade embargo against them?

It seems like they are easily making 70-80 % of products. Even though they haven't
starting making cars yet.....you know it won't be long.
TV's are starting to show up. I guess they were forbid for a while to export them but
they are definitely showing up now. :disgust:

a lot of it is made by politcal prisoners.

those sks rifles that flooded our market 5 years ago were sold by a front company for the people's army. their friggin' army was selling assault rifles in our country and reaping huge profits.

Well it is a difficult balance.
If their economy is very dependent on our consumption.
Than they are that much less of a threat to us.
And who is are biggest threat?

Yes, they would do. But for some reason large corporations have this fascination with China. :frown:

The more you think about it, the less sense it makes. Why do U.S. companies have to go half way around the world to build factrories when we a large (and not to mention stable) democractic country right on our southern border?

<< --China has given every U.S. city a Chinese name >>

ugh yea, kinda like how we call china china instead of jhong ghok( cantonese version). you need to get out more.. maybe even out of your own state.

<< I try not to buy things that are made in China. I don't care much for China. >>



Amen.

I recently heard that the Chinese tax on US goods is 42%, whereas our tax on goods made in China is 2%. Is that true?

Also, there was the AP photo of Chinese prisoners sowing American flags. Some of those guys were probably arrested for supporting democracy and freedom of religion :(

The week after China Shainghi-ed our E-3 after one of their Migs ran into it I boycotted Chinese products. At least I tried. As the thread says a helluva a lot of items are made there.
