Chinese drywall scandal. Cost people a lot. Buying from Communist countries that are a potential threat to us is not a good thing.

Yeah, Chinese electrical cable sold by the major hardware stores and used by tradesmen cost a lot of people their jobs in Australia. 1000’s of kilometres of it. Though it was driven by importers lowest cost demand.

Also my buddy is a manager for a local water district. A sales guy from some Chinese valve supplier. Had them test their Chinese made valves with Chinese steel. Well the reducers popped at half the rates psi.

Anyone that works with cranes knows you don’t use Chinese shackles for rigging.

I wouldn’t ride one of those in the parking lot of the Ace Hardware they’re sold at

No opinion here, just truth. I bought 2 brand new 140cc chinese for $400/piece. They smoked a very built $4000 KLx110. But, after 1 year they were in the trash.

True. I've never been to a Chinese restaurant that said "Asian" on the sign instead of "Chinese", not to say they are not out there.

You know my snowflake customers in San Diego get offended if I say I’m getting Mexican food for lunch? Now I’m supposed to say “Hispanic food”

China is far from being a third world shithole,They will eventually surpass the US as the worlds greatest superpower. Unfortunately we(America) are turning to shit fast. Shit look at Detroit,Chicago third world as they come.

Can't wait till we get that Chinese social credit score system working here. I wonder how many points you get for being a dirt biker. Too many points and you're not allowed to race?

To call it Hispanic food is just saying you are getting food with origins from a Spanish speaking country. That could be Argentina, Peru, Guatemala, Spain or any number of places. Calling it Mexican food is more accurate and more likely what you'll find on any street corner in San Diego.
