Re: Chinese Crap Posted by: "content22207" brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx content22207 Tue May 15, 2012 5:56 pm (PDT) I have no control over what Chinese consumers do with their purchasing yen. I have total control over what I do with my purchasing dollars. I buy Annin flags not only because they are Made in USA, but because they are higher quality than made in china flags. Cost a little bit more, but I do get a better product -- definitely an instance of getting what I pay for.

Re: Chinese Crap Posted by: "Kevin Abato" delorean@xxxxxxxxx iguanajade Wed May 16, 2012 5:27 am (PDT) Normally I would not reply to this since it is NOT Delorean related, but I felt the need to "enlighten" you on some of your statements and perhaps get you to rethink your views a bit. 1. We function as a global economy. There is no way that the United States (or any other country developed or developing) can grow, thrive, or maintain themselves without interaction and commerce from other markets. To believe otherwise is foolish and naive. 2. Although you might want to but a product "Made in America" the reality is that most items are made with base components that come from China, Indian, etc. Basically, a large part of your purchasing dollars are still being filtered into foreign markets. 3. Why is it hard to find products made in America? Because we have become a fat and lazy consumer economy. The reality is that most people today in America believe it is "below them" to make less than $12+ to flip burgers at a local fast food place. In the early part of the 1900s during the industrial revolution, we were happy to work 18 hours a day for merger pay just to have a chance at a better lifestyle and opportunity. Such is the trend in emerging industrial markets in foreign countries. Unless American ideals and mindsets change, we cannot compete with that. I can assure you that if/when our economic market crashes again (worse than in 2008) and we are faced with the second great depression where people are homeless and waiting in food lines in the street to get a meal, that most of us will be MORE THAN HAPPY to work for very little to ensure necessities like food, clothing, and shelter for ourselves and our families. 4. Control over your purchasing dollars? I don't think so. Let's assume for a minute that many of us try to make a difference and only buy American products. Do you think you have control over what those American vendors spend their profits (or business costs) on? Do you doubt that profitable business owners and their employees won't go and by the latest Apple product, other foreign made electronics? Etc? Money will eventually find its way back into the global economy 5. Chinese products are "Crap"? I see a lot of people walking around with iPhones and iPads that are all made very inexpensively in China that work pretty damn well and have unmatched quality standards, and nobody seems to complain about them! I was with a co-worker the other day who wanted a ceramic mug from Starbucks, but would not but it because it was made in China, when I questioned him about why, he said it was "inferior crap". I challenged him to prove to me that a ceramic mug made in America would be made any better, or last longer..... 6. Chinese currency is not the Yen. That is Japanese. Please check facts first before making statements Bill Kevin Abato Vin# 16680 -----Original Message----- From: dmcnews@yahoogroups .com [mailto:dmcnews@yahoogroups .com] On Behalf Of content22207 Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2012 8:56 PM To: dmcnews@yahoogroups .com Subject: Re: [DML] Chinese Crap I have no control over what Chinese consumers do with their purchasing yen.
