Most Chinese products disintegrate in no time at all......mostly junk!

Man, are YOU on a roll!!!! Call me "butter" cause I am on a roll.

Locking up of natural resources is about big green. Perhaps you've never looked at some of where big green's money goes? Take a look here for a start.

Thanks to the clintoons, China leaped ahead almost a century. They also now have ICBM's thanks to billary. Pay attention to the man behind the curtain, sometimes there's a lot more going on than meets the eye, Lou Dobbs notwithstanding...

I’m with you on the ecotards, but I’d suspect we part ways on free trade.

Fair trade, I’m all for, free trade, my horns come out. Just for the record, I’m working on a project that is half owned by Dubai International. Like I said fair trade, not free trade. But then again if we all thought the same, we wouldn’t be America!

True enough. I guess as a conservative, I'm more concerned about freedom than I am about fairness, and that attitude extends to trade. Seems to me it's always the libs whining about fairness. And yes, I know this is a cheap shot...

[Issaquahking]

In all proper consideration of what's conservative, and will protect your freedoms, perhaps you'll help me on the next step by giving due dilligence to this man for president...

I once got a PhD in experimental nuclear physics. Today, when it becomes necessary to assemble some piece of home hardware, I find the assembly instructions quite incomprehensible. I surmise that they were composed in Chinese by one Chinaman, and then translated into English, French, and German by various Chinese linguists. I have presently been able to get the things together after a struggle. Writing instruction books has become a lost art.

We love globalism ping.

What? No Spanish to plow through? How'do ya buy anything without instructions in Spanish?

Do you ever have to push one for English? Just curious, here.

Please note (and I am far from a fan of China-made goods of any kind) that the cribs became dangerous due to USER error - People who are too dumb to follow the directions and install the drop gate RIGHT SIDE UP.

And don’t get me wrong - I would have no problem with tarrifs on Chinese goods (heck - the government could make enough on that to reduce our current taxes..., not that they would).

It is just that we don’t need to start blaming when it isn’t their issue (in this limited case).

[Borax Queen]

Omg, totally!

I set down some nail polish today because it was bilingual and bought the English-only stuff made in the U.S. And why the blank is everything in three languages now?

[do the dhue]

Yea, I see that now and you are right about blame. Mention China and I get jumpy.

[yorkie]

>>And why the blank is everything in three languages now?<<

Three guesses.

French = Canada

Spanish = Mexico

English = USA

Ahem............(It couldn’t be the NAU, now, could it? Naw.)

[TheBattman]

Mention China and I get jumpy.

Me too!

[Borax Queen]

You got it. Right in front of our eyes... :(

[xjcsa]

Where do I send the check?
