PERFECT Example of WHY YOU DON'T BUY CHINESE !$@#!@$

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/...n4579229.shtml

Stop shopping at Walmart or any store that has a local Chinese warehouse that supplies them. Some of the largest companies in the world do this. THIS is why you buy American.

I find it interesting 60 minutes took the video down.

There is a company that does that in Brockton with illegal aliens doing the dirty work.

The unfortunate part is that you really don't know where the high-tech gear goes. Do we even know where all the packing material goes?

A couple of highlights from the article:
Last year, U.S. Customs rejected 64 shipments of radioactive goods at the nation's ports, including purses, cutlery, sinks and hand tools, according to data released by the Department of Homeland Security in response to a Freedom of Information Act request. India was the largest source, followed by China.

In 1998, equipment containing cesium-137 was smelted at a foundry in Los Barrios, Spain, operated by Acerinox SA, the world's largest stainless steel producer. Radiation spread over Italy and France, triggering concern that a reactor had melted down in Russia, according to an IAEA report on the incident.
