cans from china

THOUGHT THIS WAS INTERESTING AND I WOULD SHARE IT. HOPE I DON"T OFFEND ANYONE BUT IF I DO I"M SORRY.




I
WAS BUYING FOOD THE OTHER DAY AT THE COUNTRY MARKET. ON THE LABEL OF
SOME PRODUCTS IT SAID FROM CHINA.FOR EXAMPLE THE" OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF
THE MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THE CAN FROM CHINA I WAS SHOCKED!! SO FOR A FEW MORE CENTS I BOUGHT THE LIBERTY GOLD BRAND OR THE DOLE IS FROM CAL.


TAKES FOREVER JUST TO BUY FOOD AND DO LABEL READING ! !







Are we Americans as dumb as we appear --- or --- is it that we just do not think?





While the Chinese, knowingly and intentionally, export inferior and even toxic products and dangerous toys
and goods to be sold in American markets, the media wrings its hands
and criticizes the Bush Administration for perceived errors.






Yet 70% of Americans believe that the trading privileges afforded to the Chinese should be suspended.




Well, duh..why do you need the government to suspend trading privileges?






SIMPLY DO IT YOURSELF, AMERICA!!






Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it says 'Made in China' or 'PRC' (and that now includes Hong Kong),
simply choose another product, or none at all. You will be amazed at
how dependent you are on Chinese products, and you will be equally
amazed at what you can do without.


Who needs plastic eggs to celebrate Easter? If you must have eggs, use real ones and benefit some American farmer. Easter is just an example, the point is do not wait for the government to act. Just go ahead and assume control on your own.



THINK
ABOUT THIS If 200 million Americans refuse to buy just $20 each of
Chinese goods, that's a billion dollar trade imbalance resolved in our
favor....fast!!







The downside? Some American businesses will feel a temporary pinch from having foreign stockpiles of inventory. Wahhhhhhhhhhhh


The
solution? Let's give them fair warning and send our own message. Most
of the people who have been reading about this matter are planning on
implementing this on June 4, and continue it until July 4.. That is
only one month of trading losses, but it will hit the Chinese for
1/12th of the total, or 8%, of their American exports. Then they will
at least have to ask themselves if the benefits of their arrogance and
lawlessness were worth it.



! Remember, June 4 to July 4.



EVEN BETTER. . . START NOW.



Send this to everybody you know. Let's show them that we are Americans and NOBODY can take us for granted.



If we can't live without cheap Chinese goods for one month out of our lives, WE DESERVE WHAT WE GET!



Pass it on, America

Hogster i am all for American made being a Harley owner. but in todays economy everyone is pinching pennies. its hard when you need a product (anything) and you can save 45% for the same can of beans from china than from the one from America and it has the same ingredients. the problem is not that we are buying from china we are buying what we can afford in todays economic crisis. the economy is what needs to change. not who we are buying from.
