Paul.b Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 It is but there is nothing WE can do about it Albert I never, ever buy anything from China if I can help it. I will gladly pay double for something made in America but of course that is very hard because all they make here now is Cheerios, And Majano Wands. 3 Quote Link to comment

StinkyBunny Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I'd love to be able to buy all American goods, but we've allowed ourselves to be painted into this corner. So now, I buy direct out of China to get the best prices because if I'm going to be buying Chinese, I'm going to get it at the lowest price possible. 2 Quote Link to comment

The western Governments created it and the western manufacturing businesses are suffering from it. Of course these governments knew exactly what they were creating. Even goods supposedly manufactured in the west are made with Chinese components and are simply assembled or part assembled in the west. 1 Quote Link to comment
