Has anyone else noticed that the US is letting China get away with all sorts of violations?

Question

The Chinese are sending tainted and poisoned goods to the US. They recently refused to allow a US ship to dock in Hong Kongs harbor even though the waters were rough.The US government has done NOTHING to reprimand China for its actions. Is the fact that China is a strong trading partner with the US a reason for not taking any type of action?I'm not saying declaring war but I think the safety of the US citizens should be a higher priority than making overseas dollars off a country with horrible human rights violations. Why do we go after the smaller weak countries and let the bigger ones who pose a bigger threat scape on by??

Answer 1

I absolutely agree with you. Its because slavery has not completely disappeared. Americans will not work for $5 a week. Yes that is what the standard pay for clothing manufacturers is in China.

Manufacturers here have to pay so many fees to the government just to start a company and stay in business, it is discouraging. We end up increasing the poverty here in the U.S. by discouraging domestic production in exchange for paying these cheapskates for their mass produced crap.

This is why we cannot afford decent health care, homes, and to buy American.

Answer 2

Could the US you cite have the initials GWB? China owns US. Check the trade-balance. GWB doesn't have the gonads or gray matter to know what the hell is going on. We can't and won't be belligerent, so not only will we tolerate them but they will soon start placing those billions of $s in very strategic US purchases. We DO need leadership that can stop this trend. Call it a Sino-trouble coming.

Answer 3

When it comes to economic issues we turn red and question that why our government took long in nailing the nation who mustered courage by disallowing our ship to dock at its harbor when the waters were rough. Why should not the entire Chinese nation be charge sheeted. Yes I have found a pretext their factories are emitting hazardous fumes and gases I forgot they are not conforming to our labor law standards what a dangerous nation. They are about to create labor unrest in their country and God forbid this unrest will engulf the entire region will destabilize the world flow of trade and who knows the labor working at nuclear plants in China may steal the nuclear bomb in anger and sell it for 20 million dollars to Usama Bin Laden another rogue frolicking around in Pakistan. Let us stop this eventuality. We have recently conducted exercises how to secure nuclear weapons of Pakistan in case Usama's men try to steal those. Let us try this intelligent plan in china the nation of yellows.

Answer 4

Me fear people with biiiiig bucks are behind scenes.

They put pressure on administration to allow this so they make biiiiiigger bucks from trade with low income labor.

Me truly believe president does not run country anymore. Him just mouthpiece.

People in China work in terrible conditions. No safety precautions, hazardous chemicals, dangerous air quality but they do it for as little as $50 a month. That is big difference with US labor cost.

It could be worse. GWB get sick and we end up with sure shot Cheney as president. OOOO that's scary!

Answer 5

The US has lodged a formal complaint against China recently. As far as letting human rights violators get off scot-free, that is politics. Look at Saudi Arabia for example, they treat their women horrible and the US does nothing about it because Saudi Arabia is the head of OPEC and is a major supplier. Politics, can't live with them, can't live without them.

Answer 6

Let's see. As far as the Violations go. Ummm...... Lead in paint of the toys our kids use. Banned chemicals being used as pesticides on crops, not to mention shrimp that's farm grown with chicken crap as food, which the chickens are feed with chemical grown crops, so now the shrimp is contaminated. Hmmm, am I missing anything else? I'm sure I am. As far as letting them go unchecked. Look at how big China is. They have 1/5 of the world's population. It's not really our job though to check all these countries. It's in fact the United Nations job. I understand that we shouldn't let china walk all over us like that. Just because they are big, it doesn't mean that they over power us.

Answer 7

China has 200 bill in USD which it can sell if it gets upset....you think the dollar is low now? We do bad stuff too....Huntington Life Sciences gasses hundreds of cats and dogs but nobody goes to jail. If this happened in China it would be all over the news.

Answer 8

The government doesn't need to do anything but look like a helpless dog in the face of big bad communist chinese businesses. Everyone hates China for this, which is good for us and bad for them anyways.

The government cannot really implement a sort of policy that tells chinese companies what to do; american companies do that.

Answer 9

particular. They slowed to a provide up, yet i've got had a pair this week already. One became into on the moon landings. honestly, Yahoo could desire to take a stable share of the blame for permitting this troll to flee with their strikes. If their purpose is to perpertrate lack of expertise and superstition among the well-known public, they provide the effect of being like succeeding.
