I'd rather own Chinese everything over American. Everything America makes is slop and corners are cut for profits so the owners of companies can own their third home and maybe a yacht. The truth is Chinese engineering quality exceeds the West in almost every domain at this point.
I'd move there given the opportunity, the business owners of America are willing to poison and put the lives of their fellow citizens at risk for literal pieces of paper. I'm ashamed to be American.
- HerbManic 5mo agoI agree with the quality of some of the stuff coming out of China but when it comes to poisons and risking the lives of citizens, I have some bad news for you. That is how they undercut so heavily by foregoing those standards.
- emodendroket 5mo agoChina has moved beyond being a "value" manufacturer and they've cleaned up a lot.
- don_esteban 5mo agoIn China, they hang those that are responsible. In US, they get slap on their hand.
- King-Aaron 5mo agoOr they get cabinet positions.
- HerbManic 5mo agoHa, yeah that is a fair point.
- davidwritesbugs 5mo agoNot saying you are wrong about many US business owners but having travelled in China I can tell you that Chinese companies have no qualms about poisoning their neighbours for enhanced profits - my guide there said it was what he hated about his country. Money drives ethics pretty much everywhere I reckon.
- maxglute 5mo agoThis one of those if both country are spying on you, pick the foreign spy since their gov can't touch you. If industrialist from both sides poisoning backyards, pick the one that isn't doing it in near you.

This happened in 2008 by the way. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Chinese_milk_scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Chinese_milk_scandal

- fooo1882992 5mo agoWow you're literally seething haha. Kidney stones flaring up again? Don't forget to put flowers on the tiny graves.
- jpleyden98 5mo agoI disagree with 'glazing' China but the USA really isn't much better https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flint_water_crisis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flint_water_crisis
- King-Aaron 5mo agoThe US is systematically winding back a plethora of health/safety regulations that prevent this sort of stuff.
