Voted : i will share my wisdom below
I try not to buy chinese products, but sometimes it's hard to find items that's not made there.
Voted : i won't buy products made in china
But they don't really eat cardboard over there, so there's some good news.
Voted : i won't buy products made in china
I can't really say i won't BUY stuff from China because i try not to, because their products are shit. But my father in law brings back tons of cheap crap from China when he goes overseas (he's a merchant marine, so he is always in China and other countries bringing back stuff, like crappy dvd's, some work, most don't and end up in the garbage but what do you want for a buck), lol
Voted : i'll take my chances and keep buying them
I would be more selective, for reasons mentioned above, but I would still buy some items.
you see, I am a realist.

"I am a realist."- The calling card of a pessimist.
Get off the bandwagon and do what you can to eliminate slavery within our lifetime.
^ right on robin! you're not being a realist lcd, you're giving in. by buying it, you let them keep making poisionous stuff. that's just wrong. you're an enabler dude.

If we all worked at not buying goods marked 'China', it would be a start. Or, not.

What Larry and Socal said. If I need something immediately and all I can find is something made in China, then I'll buy it. But if I have my choice, I avoid their products when possible.
And by the way, the bread made of cardboard story turned out to be a hoax.

Problem is, so much of the stuff we buy is from China. So what would you guys suggest?

^ simple. western companies need to stop having everything assembled in china. they're making like 75% of that stuff for us,so just move it back home or another country. problem basically solved. china wouldn't be making sqwat if western companies with all their greed didn't outsource the assembly to them. facts
Voted : i won't buy products made in china
I try not to buy them when possible but this is proving to be an increasingly difficult task.
I was trying to find the "US flag made in China" comment on here, but no luck. It was a classic.
I just saw on news Sponge Bob Square pants address books and journals being recalled because of lead in paint violation. Every day it's something different with products from China.
Voted : i will distract from this ballot and go off on a tangent
Okay, here I go...
Sure, the Chinese are proving to be a horde of unscrupulous bastards. They'll make and ship us all manner of products, without regard to proper safety measures, all for the sake of profit.
Now, where's the CPSC? You know, the Consumer Product Safety Commission? They guys who are supposed to make sure that crap such as this *doesn't* get in to our stores?
I'll tell you where.
They're sitting on their asses, completely hamstrung because of consistent budget cuts made by Our Caring Guv'mint. China's guilty. Yes. No doubt. But they had help inside the Beltway.
