I rather doubt "the consumers" will wake up any time soon. What the
majority want is low prices, wheter it's retail goods, the homes they
buy, or whatever. My brother worked for Pulty Homes (sp?) for a year or
two, and you wouldn't believe what cheap crap a half-million dollar plus
home is made out of. But most buyers are ignorant and have no interest
in finding out. It's shiny and new and they want it. As long as that is
true, companies will exploit it.

I'm not harboring any hatred for the Chinese that produce this crap, but
I
am harboring a lot of anger and resentment toward the people (a.k.a. the
ignorant masses that make up the American electorate and "the consumers"
as
well as Big Labor & Big Business) and government agencies that have
combined
their ignorance, stupidity and greed to make this country China's retail
outlet. And I'm 100% with you on the idea of raising hell until the
people
of this country wake up to what's being done to them.
