About [Edit]
A coffee maker made in China didn't work. Stuff full of lead, people jailed for speaking out, corporate collusion with the power brokers of China. It's time to put a stop to all of this.
It's going to be hard, so for a start lets tell the discounters, retail outfits, multi-nationals to stop making so much crap that no one really needs and that they start telling China to shape up.
Lets start telling the politicians through out the world to do something about all the human, economic and environment costs and let's see where they stand - probably straddling the fence. It's about trade and how those politicians created this mess through multi-national capitalism.
A worker in Detroit can't find a job, a farmer in Mexico can't grow corn all because of trade rules - NAFTA, CAFTA and all the other AFTAS have just got to go.
Let's start picking on China and those jerks that made the rules and get sanity back. It's all melting away anyway, moving all this manufactured crap around the world is part of that problem. Making crap that ends up in landfills or "recycled" into creeks and streams is nuts. It's cheaper to throw stuff away than to fix it, now how’s that for just plain dumb.
It's all messed up, it's time to start fixing things and the best place to start is with China and trade.
