This growing concern about Chinese manufactured goods has caused me to now look at where something is made before buying it. How irresponsible of a business to create something that says it is "low fire danger" and yet it ignites like a gas damped cloth?

I know I am tired of these so called "safe" things from china. I have joined the boycott of chine goods. IF I see something made in china I do not buy it. I hope that enough people take up the stand against chine made goods so that they learn we are not going to buy their lazy understandard junk.
