Re: Companies Are Fools To In Communist China
[ QUOTE ]
I'm not saying Chinese products are all save. I'm saying in this instance an apology might be in order.
I think my statement stands. They figured they could blame someone else and people would buy it without question because they know Americans hate China.

In this specific case that might be so. I haven't read enough on this specific instance to know one way or the other.
Sorry but your remarks struck me the wrong way and perhaps
I misperceived or misguessed where you were coming from. I do get tired of people crying "xenophobia!" regarding things that actually have very real basis for concerns, and I just thought you were probably doing something in that vein. Again I probably misperceived where you were coming from, so apologies.
There is plenty of reason to be somewhat leery of the quality and safety of Chinese exports right now given so many failures in that regard.
Also, I don't think "Americans hate China" as a general rule and so I sort of wonder what would make you think so.
