[A86] Re: Fw: Fwd:Fw: Chinese fiasco
um.. ok.. this whole thing is kinda off the subject.. but almost everything
that said made is china
will not only pinch american businesses, if boycotted, but strangle.. since
it's
the american business making the money off of selling the stuff made in
china,
not the chinese, the americans just subcontract the factories, if we boycott
the chinese goods, where
are the americans gonna get labor that's that cheap?
