Is there anything China is sending to the US that's not tainted?- clarencepaul, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Why do we with our standards continue to do so much trade with them ? Seems like lead is their #1 commodity, saw a picture of India other day of a zillion wires, looked like a hugh spider webb and we are using them in computer and other high-tech outsourcing. We farm out too much, we need to get back to being America the producer.
