Again, China proves how good they are at destroying their own country for a few bucks.

For 1RMB any chinese would dump toxic waste into his own drinking water.

Strip the wires with stones if you can't afford snips. Use the plastic to brade gloves.

Are old computers made with Lead and Cadium? We send our Waste to China to recycle. Now, Cadium is found in Children's Jewelry made in China..

Did you know? That's just the BEGINNING. America (USA namely) chose to go from analog to digital TV. There are expected over 50M tons (in a number 50,000,000 tons) of e-waste *additionally* to that. More beautiful lagoons turned to toxic waste dumps. It feels like the Apocalypse movie, but no: this is REAL.

We have 10% unemployment (officially) and our citizens are trillions in debt as is the government and China has huge cash reserves a great manufacturing industry and the citizens have low debt and you say we are rich?

I would like computers to be priced at there real cost, but for the US gov to pay (with money borrowed from China) to clean up China is just crazy.
