People like Chinese products for one reason-they are cheap. They are cheap for one main reason; Chinese people work for very low wages. Most are also not highly educated. They are likely  to make more mistakes. China does not have a lot of high standards and quality control like we do in the US. Remember the trouble over children's painted joys? Actually many of their products are quite good so don't write off all their products. It may depend on the brand name of the product they are producing for. They produce a lot of junk. A lot is cheaper. A lot is  not bad; a lot is not so good. You tend to get what you pay for. It seems to me that just about every thing I pick up I look at it to see where it was made and sure enough it says made in China. That is why Americans are unemployed. We like cheap! We don't like unemployed. We like cheap better I think. I try to buy "made in America", but it is difficult. Remember when Walmart proudly displayed signs that said made in America? You don't see them anymore. Americans want CHEAP. Our government needs to continue to put pressure on the Chinese gov. to upgrade their quality or to refuse to accept their shipments. The quality that comes out of China is determined by the Chinese gov. or by the American companies doing business over there. It is not the poor Chinese people who determine the quality.
