China’s Exports Soar Despite Contaminated Products
October 14th, 2007 by The Money Moose
We’ve all heard about the recalled toys from various companies because they were contaminated with lead paint and all that good stuff. Despite all of these defective products, China’s exports are still growing - they’re still making more and more money.
“China said Friday that it exported $878 billion worth of goods in the first nine months of 2007, up 27 percent from the period last year, when Chinese exports posted record volume. “
No surprise, seeing as how everything now comes from China. Even Santa gets his labor from China.
“Through August, China’s food and agriculture exports to the United States were up 27 percent over last year, to about $2.5 billion. And global exports of Chinese-made toys jumped 18 percent, to about $16 billion, during the period, despite a series of recalls of lead-tainted toys by Mattel Inc., the world’s largest toy company. “
China’s gotten a reputation for selling low-quality cheap items. That’s why no one cares if they’re deadly. It’s expected. In fact, I think these dangerous products are actually helping us build a resistance to foreign markets. Contaminated toys are helping us.
As you can see, the more you eat the better your knowledge of foreign markets will be. You’ll lose less money. I relate it to building up a resistance to cyanide by eating a little bit every day. That’s what I’m trying, and I don’t feel a thing.
Yet.

Ever since the rabid capitalist investors in the US corporate world found that they could take an entire plant’s manufacturing processes and patents, which are after all corporate property and transfer them for profit to China and India, the same kind of crap we manufactured here in the 30-40-50-60-70s is coming back at us. Soon, we will all be unemployed because this closed the plants in the US and there will be no market for their products because we will have no jobs or money. The Chinese, and people of India certainly don’t want this crap, they don’t even have a ‘Santa Claus’ etc., so this cheap shot predator-capitalist process will have killed itself off. We keep buying from China, they aim at us for their market. This will continue until we are broke!
By then, they will have learned enough to provide for themselves and we can go to hell - This is the day after your union contract with your capitalist enslaver has run out! we are there! We have no ’socialized medicine’ no real ‘unemployment insurance’ we are up the proverbial river and the capitalist bastards are pounding our behinds with the paddle! Wake Up America The Obama, Clinton, Clinton triumvirate is your last chance.
