True, but you go shopping for those low prices, don't you? Why else would you be at Walmart?
People want good deals, hence lower prices, hence factories in cheap countries. |

Because of cheap marketing and sweat shops.
They work for days on ends for pennys and they can't do anything about it because they're poor and need the money.
Sad fact. |

Well, I think you know it's because labor is cheaper. But, think of it as helping those less fortunate than ourselves, no? Many Americans would go out of business if they had to pay the higher prices here in the states, so outsourcing, in a way, not only employs Chinese people, it keeps Americans in business.
Besides, if you're not making toys, you can always wash dishes, right? |

It is overly simplistic to say that unemployment is high because work is sent overseas where it is cheaper.
Corporations have no loyalty to a particular nation, and neither do consumers.
Whether we like it or not, we are in a global economy.
I live in Taiwan. A few years ago, as a corporate English teacher, I was assigned to a company that made wedding gowns--big business over here and around the world.
They buy the bead work in India, and the lace is done in the Philippines. The sewing is done in mainland China, where the labour is cheapest.
Except the sleeves. The gowns and sleeves are shipped to Germany, where Turkish workers buzz them through sewing machines and sew on a label that says "Made in Germany".
American buyers pay a premium price for the gown because of the "German quality". Not like that Chinese garbage.
We need to compete in a global world. We need to figure out what we do best, better than anybody, and do it.
I'm Canadian. We have the same problem. Or, should I say the same challenge? |

becouse of cheap labour, companies have to pay the people less than a half of what they would pay if they had it made locally, plus the work conditions are softer on the employers.
and remember if they r locally made chances are that they will be more expensive coz then they will have to cover the cost of manufacturing. |

China has such a large population, and so many people are looking for any job they can get. They figure that working for a cheap price is betetr than not working at all, so they will take jobs, such as simple manufactoring, even if they get paid poorly. |

Well these things happened in 70's, probably you have realized now about industrial revolution.. Anyways china has a syndrome of selling things at any price...about unemployments figures, numbers can be deluding...often! |

Lol! I noticed that too! I think that Walmart etc. are just power hungry, money greedy businesses who do not care about any of America's problems or Chinas. China works hard making things for very low pay, while the wealthy Americans CEOs and others take in all that money with no consideration towards the low class people of this country! The unemployment rate has gone up and it is because these big companies are taking over small businesses and are turning our economy topsy-turvy! |

Let's face it...everyone is looking for a bargain. Even businesses. American made is more expensive than what is made in China! |

Me and my family always look for the red white and blue when we shop. I try to buy only made in America items.
It's harder to shop for and you might pay more, but at least your supporting America. |

It's call cheap labor, when they can hire 1 worker over there for $10 a day, and bring it in to our country they almost don't have to pay any tax on it, most of the worker in our country same type of work probably average about $10 an hour or more, and most of the jobs that move to China and Mexico are manual labor anywhere, so if we want to stay ahead of the game keep educate your self.
and you get what you paid for. |

the cost of labor and the cost of the materials are 10x cheaper than anywhere else so companies move to china to make a huge profit |

I'm pretty sure it's because child labor is legal in China. There is a larger population of workers there to take advantage of. |
|

That's because the materials and pay for workers is really cheap, and they work all day. Everything's so inexpensive there, they basically distribute everything. Except electronics. |

cause most every "product" is made in China or Taiwan or Japan...they offer quality, cheap labor |

THANK YOU! I wish people would recognize what is so obvious and change the way they do things. After the recall of the toys that contained lead from China, I no longer purchase toys that are made in China nor do I purchase anything from China with any paint because of the lead containment. There are alternatives out there if you look for them. |

China does stuff for cheaper. simple as that. |

1. They make everything with lead.
2. We can't afford to buy things made by Americans. |
|

Because Americans, oops! "Most" Americans work harder @ not working or finding ways to avoid actual work or whine because they have an 8 hour work day and have to "actually" work 8 hours. You know the drill, go figure. |
