Made in China

[vrz07]

Its dooms day. If 95% trade is done in india and china then unemployment is gonna go through the roof. Us uk and europe are going to pay an extremly seious peoblem on its pulic f.

[archelonprime]

When America's average tariff is TWO percent, it isn't hard to see why so much stuff is made outside of America. But the insanely low tariff is only one of a number of problems with our trade policy. Even China's tariffs aren't this low!

"Free trade" my ass!

[fdoca]

THANK U CHINA !!, wthout China we can't buy nothing, 350% american price mark up, thief ??

No, i buy Chinese, many people don't even know we can not survive without Chinese goods, 5 billion+ ppl rely on Chinese goods, just in case u don't know

[mattybock]

@fdoca at walmart i saw a bangali t-shirt probably made in a sweatshop for nine dollars.

Union shirt supply company has American made shirt made with American grown cotton for six-fifty.

There are alternatives, you just have to look.

[CHUUMPASS]

this chick is effin sweet, for the 200 bucks more i`d have her sent with the order :D

[MrJoelb019]

EVERY VID THAT HAS THE WORD CHINA IN IT IM GOING TO SAY EVERY FUCKING THING IS MADE IN FUCKING CHINA!

[uploaddownload007]

super clever.

.... pwned

[PatriotsRepublic]

The trick of remaining needed is to keep making something no one else can... when products become easy to produce.... the lowest common denominator becomes the prominent factor. But when items are very difficult to produce, only the most competent and trustworthy can produce them. The problem isn't buying cheap items from China... the problem is the lack of imagination of lazy Americans expecting that things will never, or should never change... how stupid is that!

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic YOu correctly assessed the situation....In fact, when outsourcing began, most westerners believed , to put it plainly, that "the chinese will make our underwears while we'll be selling planes and computers to them"....That logic didn't really work as they underestimated the east asians and south asians capabilities in sending satellites at a cheaper price tag than western firms for instance

I'm not against outsourcing but I don't caution the frequent exploitation of workers

[PatriotsRepublic]

@Varoonmg The beauty of the free market is that you can refuse to buy products you believe are produced by exploited workers.

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic Well I think such decisions should be taken at state-level....For instance, it would be unfair to ask second-world countries to pay high salaries to their workers BUT we can put pressure on them to pay a minimum basic salary that at least allows these workers to live correctly, same thing about working conditions....

Unfortunately, as individual consumers we don't have much leverage as most products are made there and are cheap

[PatriotsRepublic]

@Varoonmg so again, your solution is force. Not trying to be more efficient, or more productive... no, lets use force to MAKE others pay their workers a salary that they are unwilling to pay, so those poor workers who are making more money than they've ever made before will now be starving once more... yeah, your solution works very good at killing millions in the third world. Of course you have a choice. You can buy the $40 t-shirts and $250 dollar jeans made in the USA.

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic I think you didn't read me properly...I said it would be unfair to force them to pay as high salaries as in developed countries but many CAN pay a minimum salary

For instance we all know that many chinese factories CAN pay higher salaries but prefer keeping it for themselves so as to pay the high salaries of the owners....there's a difference between not being able to and not wanting to

The money IS there

To buy anything, you need to have a job first but with outsourcing...

[PatriotsRepublic]

@Varoonmg I didn't misread... I read your wording precisely. Your terminology is semantically advocating force. Look up "pressure" in the dictionary.... don't bother, I'll do it for you: Pressure: a force that compels... I can read just fine... I think you are either playing fancy free with semantics or you just don't understand English. Pressuring them to pay a minimum wage is the same as forcing them to pay a minimum wage. How about you just stop buying anything made in China. Problem solved!

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic When a state refuses to import goods made in countries where children are being exploited or forbids its firms from investing in countries where their outsourced firms are making workers toil in conditions that breach Intenational Labour Laws, then that's tangible but non physical force...

If you were a little bit familiar with semantics you'd actually know that a word can have different meanings depending on its use...Why make so much fuss about it?

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic Had you spent some time looking up things you'd know that Chinese workers are becoming more and more expensive, because of demands made by them to be paid a decent salary and work in better living conditions...That's a normal and expected thing to happen, BUT china being a one party state and trade unions being officially banned, such changes are taking place at much slower than expected rate...

The money IS there, but not going to the needy and working population

[Varoonmg]

@PatriotsRepublic The fixed currency of China is also another major problem because it artificially makes them more competitive leading to market inefficiency

& don't be naive, manufacturers do care about their public image but exploited workers committing suicide didn't stop anyone from buying the new ipad & most of the manufacturing having been outsourced, the only products locally made are much too expensive for anyone to afford

Adopting a contemptuous tone does not make your point valid

[zoombarakat]

china will take over the world, trust me when i say that our children we will start putting them in Chinese school to learn the chines language, pleas show me any product thats not made in china or japan.

[SittingPrettyx10]

shes hella smart for that one...and shes gorgeous :)

[FUdirtbag]

america is the greediest country there is. all they are is about money, money, money! it is because of this greed why americans are losing jobs to other countries. all the big shots say, why pay an american $50k a year when we can pay someone in another country $10k a year? and there goes your job. there is no stopping the greed.

[tenzingirl1]

yea the Chinese burned 50 million temples and had killed 200 million Tibetans since 1990.

[SirEmman]

She's a good call center agent

[skylark304]

US SECRETLY destabilizing the countries where there could be investment from china by doing that the flight of money will come back to US. so you got your service and money both!! so RELAX

[LeClassics]

The Chinese are the new Jews, with the Americans being the new Nazis.

[EPsuperFan]

A Joke. What America is feeling now is 1 millionth of 19 cen India and China. We were forced to buy European goods even if they are NOT cheaper, and India was literally occupied for good. China or India is not FORCING US consumers now, at least this is fairplay! And plz notice outsource of US on China and India TODAY is still HUGE. Think about the immigrant Indian and Chinese with PHD degrees- all China and India tax money, US have it FOR FREE. Blame your own govt. for unempployment plz!

[liang88409587]

With a large number of slightly implied, as well as slander, video! To damage the interests of other countries, is the most despicable!

[morgnstrn]

The only way we can fight this is to stop buying these products made in other countries,you show your support for this kind of "free trade" every time you shop at a chinese outlet store (now pretty much any big store) I remember going to "Buy-Mart"around july 4th,there was a large selection of american flags and flag novelty decorations for sale,ALL MADE IN CHINA, I asked the maneger if they had any American flags that werent made in comunist china,He looked at the ground and said NO ashamed.

[peacerebelgirl]

it's laughable - american patriotism with flags made in china! i agree, we must stop buying goods made in china, as much as possible. boycott walmart!

[Varoonmg]

@peacerebelgirl I don't think anyone complains about buying american products, so why make such a fuss about products made elsewhere??...That's called economic specialisation, I thought capitalist americans would know about that....

In any case as your own vid depicted, you either opt for a fully made american product with it's huge price tag or just buy the chinese made one...

[CRX35E]

china is just being used, soon they will see what comes with exponential growth

[StandardJohnDoe]

lovely, but then again such countries have always been used by developed nations for goods. Spices are one example (Accidentally found America along the way), only now the resource is personnel and skill.

I would not worry about it too much though, China is having problems with protests with laid off workers and India is having problems with the usual False-Flag attacks instigating another war with Pakistan. Both will once again become unstable, which will result in capital flight.

[dweber66]

yep, welcome to our new futu

[Kittenkattan]

This is the problem with us! We'll buy American only if it is cheaper than what's in India, or China. That is why we will be just a footnote in History in 20 years.

[evcrawfish]

oh man, i remember well growing up. when made in america meant quality, reliability and a fair price. then we were sold the walmart motto, lower prices, don't worry about where it is made, it's cheap. now everybody buys boat loads of junk that never lasts more than a week and the prices are just as high as before with the made in america stuff. difference is now we don't manufacture anything; and we still have with us the junk. poor stupid americans, next you will have nothing... IMHO
