Poison dog food. Poison toothpaste. Lead paint on toys. Substandard steel tubing. Mattel recalls.
We have very safe products in the U.S. with exceptions. China sells you what you want, and deliver what they've got.
The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) is working
to keep it that way. They are working hard, and spending much
money, to protect the right of outsourcing companies to import
dangerous and cheap products.
You have mea culpas, and then back room fights to keep consumers unsafe and in the dark.

Colorado CPA member Milt Heft has these thoughts on money, wealth and the economy. Heft is the owner of Petrogen, Inc in Colorado Springs.
A few thoughts about manufacturing:
There is a great misunderstanding of the relationship- between money and wealth. The beginning principles with which we can all agree are a few and simple noble truths:
1. Money is meaningless without wealth.
2. Wealth is difficult to distribute without money.
3. Wealth is the reality of the physical things we need to survive and thrive: food, clothing, shelter, ice cream & computers. It is the product of mining, industrial production, and agriculture.
4. Money is anything that make the wheels of production and distribution go ‘round.
5. Money is easy to manufacture and control.
6. Wealth takes a lot of blood, sweat, toil and tears.
