I'll never buy a car made by the Chi-coms with slave labor. They claim they pay the workers as much as $ 2 per hour. But how many of the workers are forced to work in these factories? Never again! Do not buy a product made in China.

Sometimes I walk through a Wal-Mart shaking my head at their really stupid display signs. How can Americans buy all that crap made in China and India? It ought to be a federal felony to shop at Wal-Mart.

***It ought to be a federal felony to shop at Wal-Mart.***

Then check out the chinese goods at Dollar store.
Dollar General.
Dollar tree.
Fred's.
Attwoods.
Ace hardware.
True Value hardware.
Home Depot.

or any local Mom and Pop store.

You can run form the Chinese but you can't hide.


As 'Dilbert' said several years ago.
With slave labor you don't have to worry about the goods made of Friday not being up to standard.

India's not the same as China --its a republic with regular elections not a communist state

I work with a lot of Chinese. I asked some of them about the low prices and how the workers are treated. Without going into depth, they said they are happy to have a job. The cost of living is a lot cheaper over there too.

Good luck with the "federal felony" bit. My kid came home from her last day of school with the Presidential Award for Academic Achievement. Cute little gold medal with "Made in China" stamped on the back.
