Chinese manufacturing safety

How can the US compete with people working in these conditions 16 hours a day for scant wages. These are where the extra bells and whistles on your foreign autos come from. Money is saved by ignoring ergonomic and safety concerns, paying horrid wages, and having no legacy costs (retirees)

Keep shopping a Wal*Mart.

That is a big row to hoe for many. It is very hard in this era of consumerism to tell someone their kid cannot have the latest doo-dad that is cheapest at Wallmart.

Consumerism's rampant want what you do not need credo of the last couple decades feeds right into the Wallmart buisness plan.

I am able to forego shopping there currently, but even when vacationing in northern Wisconsin, I see the new super center ready to smash the family owned grocery store right next to it.

American jobs wouldnt be in danger if not for unions, "safety" crap, fuel economy laws and "pollution" control. China understands what free economy means. US is slipping into socialism. Vote YES for Republican candidates in your area. Vote NO to a jobless Godless liberal existence.

There would be no middle class if not for unions. Wake up.

[jetgeo4]

i want that job....u just don't want to fall asleep on that job

[billysnoid]

I cant believe they would allow this! Thank God American stamping plants, what is left of them, would not allow such dangerous conditions. Think about this next time another american job goes to China!

wah wah wah, safety, protocol, iso, unions, poor pay, PPEs, squalid working conditions, 14 hour work day...I've been waiting six months for a company in Utah to send me a simple aluminum deep drawn enclosure and they email to say it will be another month. These guys are bangin em out! Go for it China! You have your shit together!

[julzabro]

Excellent! Thanx 4 sharing. Sadly, many here in America r working in poor conditions and being treated unfairly. None as bad as the men in this video tho....as far as I know...but if we don't wake up, we'll be doing the same thing! Without the unions, we r lost!

@brandistocker

This workers make 4 times as much as peasants. There are 10 people that want to get 1 position. If you strike, there are 9 people waiting for your job.

The Union GM workers didn't cause the problem, it was the upper echelon taking advice from big oil to keep 'em guzzling gas. Meanwhile Japan worked on solving this problem. So therefore, in this GREEN AGE people purchased the fuel efficient vehicles made in lobby-proof Japan. Big oil loves to screw everyone for a buck.

[GameICY]

Being UNION does NOT add to costs, it reduces windfall profits. For example 2 plumbing co.'s bid the same job, for example a Target Store for the same exact price. The only difference is that the Union Co. owner has to pay his plumbers a few extra dollars per hour + benefits and the Non-Union owner gets more for his pocket. Unions keep hem HONEST. This country (UNITED States of America) is a Union. If you dont like UNIONS Effen Leave NOW and join these mooks in the essembly line.

@brandistocker. If you stand up against your boss or your politicians in China you are arrested and executed for terrorism. Ironically Chinese prisoners are often sent to US and European prisons like Gutmo in "cooperation projects".

[itsumonihon]

har har har great idea let's get them unionized and they'll end up just like GM
