Fellow Americans: Is it time to boycott produces that are made in China?

Question

China is the new evil empire of the world. They have plans to over throw us in a nuclear attack then massare and enslave us all. But their first plan is to ruin us by destroying our economy and grab every drop of wealth for themself and achieving total monopolistic control of all resources on Earth by selling us junk produces to steal all of our money.

They are an atheist police state and the people are not allow to have a Bible. China is continuing to build up its forces. It continues to abuse human rights in a flagrant fashion. It constantly bullies and threatens its neighbors in the Pacific. it also fundamentally opposed to everything America stands for; freedom, tolerance, democracy, and human rights.

Just think about this:
Every Chinese employed means an American worker idle.
Every Chinese produce sold means an American produce unsold.

We fought against them in Korea and Vietnam. There they cruelly murdered US soldiers.

Once a Chinese - Always a Chinese!

Answer 1

Wow... you are really upon that soapbox today, brother.

The time to boycott Chinese products was 20 years ago.
By now, millions of Americans and Europeans are employed in importing, truck driving, distributing, selling those Chinese products.
When you buy a pair of Chinese shoes (and YOU HAVE) there were 5 Americans involved in the sale. NEWS FLASH: there are NO American shoes.

Sure the Chinese are Commies and low class. But Americans and Europeans sure like those low prices. Your logic just doesn't target the problems you mentioned. Americans that DON'T demand 30 dollars and hour to work, while charging up a storm on plastic cards...that might be a start for a proud American. My only credit card is at zero, and yours?

Direct your anger now to the EVEN lower paid South Africans. I hear the Chinese are hiring THEM to do the work even faster at a lower price.
The future always brings change, sir. Face it.

We didn't fight against them in Viet Nam, and they were our allies in WW2. The Japanese were MUCH more cruel to American prisoners. Where is your sense of historical logic for a boycott? You need a few history lessons and economic lessons, meanwhile, just sit there with your finger on the "Thumbs down" button for all who don't answer to your liking.

Answer 2

Wealth is not zero-sum. You imagine wealth to be like a huge pie. If I take a large piece, that means somebody else takes a smaller piece. Wrong. New wealth is created ALL THE TIME. Why, then, should I buy your protectionist diatribe that one Chinese man employed is another American worker idle?

While China is a communist totalitarian state, it's also reforming economically. Firstly, Chinese goods are cheap. As a consumer, I like that. Secondly, if you boycott Chinese goods, you're hurting Chinese people - not just the Chinese government. I'm sure you don't care about Chinese people 'cause they're not American, but I do. I think we're all better off if the Chinese are free and we can trade with them freely.

Answer 3

In some ways a boycott is possible but in many other ways, it's impossible. So many things have been outsourced that even assembling an American made automobile today is impossible to do without many parts that are produced in China and Korea.

Answer 4

It is well past the time that we should all be bocotting Chinese made imports, but it is very difficult as almost everything worth buying is made in China. The American industial base is a but destroyed.

Answer 5

Whatever... telling an american not to shop at wall mart is like telling a crack head that drugs are bad. We have lost all concept of american made=equals quality made. In fact, I think most of us droll walmart shoppers like the fact that everything we buy so cheaply breaks so quickly as it gives us an excuse for our favorite american past time... shopping.

Give me all the thumbs down ya want but it is a fact. Families used to pass their things down from one generation to the next. But now the things we get from other nations literally break down within a year or two. They produce crap and they know it. They really must think we are the stupidest people on earth as we give them the raw material to make things then buy the cheaply made things and a year later buy them again since it broke.

Answer 6

You are not a Proud American, you are a Silly American.

If we stop buying goods made in China then China stop doing business with us, what do you think that will do to us??

China just bought billions of Boeing made Planes from us! you silly American.

Answer 7

One needs to look at every product. Their powdered metal products are soft and not tempered.

The chinese pharmaceuticals are being sent in bulk to our drug manufacturers, we repackage them and stamp "mfg in USA" and technically it's true. So we can't even know where the stuff is from.

Ans: You can't, cause you don't know what comes from mainland china.

Answer 8

I am a Japanese. I am not an Americans but I am still boycotting produces that are made in China anyway. I hate all Chinese and I think you are right about how they are evil. We should nuke them! KILL THEM ALL!!!

Answer 9

America is more evil than China.

At least, everything China is counterfeit except Fraud.

But, everything America is arrogant.

Answer 10

No, we can get stuff much cheaper this way and they aren't taking any jobs an American would want.
