whatever happened to american made and american values ! the majority of things are made out of the country. placing american workers out of jobs .basically because big business does not want to pay americans decent wages and healthcare , so it is easier to have things made where there are no strings attached and all profit . i will not buy anything made in china any longer . i believe in the american dream for all people not just big business> theresa

None of you get it do you? China IS the new "Sleeping Giant" that has been awoken. Over the last 150 years they have been taken advantage of, and played for fools. Now they're looking for some payback, and they've got everyone exactly where they want them...by the purse strings that are tied around America's balls!!! Why do you think hundreds of billions of dollars disappeared from our electronic funds base back in September? The USA was most probably cyber attacked by China, Russia, and possibly the Saudi's to destabilize American currency to usher in enthusiastic support for duping the dollar for a global currency. China's official war strategy is to utilize "disruptive technologies" to defeat it's enemy, and they are doing it masterfully!! WAKE UP AMERICA - We ARE at WAR!!!

COME ON GUYS. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU. SHEILAHOJNIK18 IS SSSSSSSOOOOOOO CORRECT. DON'T LISTEN TO THESE IRONIC MORONS. INVEST IN AMERICA. WHERE A MAN (OR WOMAN) CAN GO ABOVE AND BEYOND FAR WHAT ANY OTHER COUNTRY CAN EVER DO. THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON THE BLOOD AND SWEAT OF HARDWORKING AMERICANS WHO CAME FOR BETTER WAGES AND FREEDOM. DON'T LET THIS BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU. COME ON GUYS, INVEST IN AMERICA. IT WILL, REPEAT WILL, RAISE YOUR PROFIT INSTEAD OF SOME STUPID CHINESE PERSON. THEY ARE ALL LIARS AND CHEATERS OVER THERE WHO HAVE STOLEN SO MUCH FROM THE US THAT YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT. INVEST IN AMERICA, AND NO WHERE ELSE. IT'S JUST LIKE IF YOU WERE TO GIVE $100 TO YOURSELF OR TO BILL GATES. WHO WOULD YOU? YOURSELF BECAUSE BILL GATES ALREADY HAS FAR TOO MUCH MONEY. THE CHINESE IS BILL GATES IN THIS SITUATION AND AMERICA IS YOU. DON'T LET AMERICA GO DOWN HILL AND DIE BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF FAITH YOU HAVE IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY. MAKE AMERICA BETTER. INVEST IN AMERICA AND HAVE FAITH IN AMERICA. BE WHAT AN AMERICAN SHOULD BE AND NOT SOME STUPID INVESTOR WHO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO BENEFIT FROM, WHICH IS NOTHING.

To begin so even the blithering fools of this planet can understand, you never invest in your enemies' country, nor do you borrow money from your enemies' country. You never help your enemy in any way, shape or form. China is and always has been our enemy. China can never be trusted. Global economy is and will be the end to all free enterprise, and the American Democracy's way of life. The Republic for which it stands shall fall at the oppression from China.

The democrat party can be blame for the economic uprise of the Chinese..And no party but them is to blame because at the 1994 the democrat party controlled the white house and congress..They sold China our super computers, and now the democrats even bitch because the chinese hecked into our systems..Well they gave them the tools to do the job..China was a clouded forest that it's citizens could not see through..Theirs minds were blocked until they experienced the real world through the use of computers..So do put the blame where it belongs people..On these lowlife ddemocrats we have in office today..They can't do anything but give away our childrens futures..It's in their blood because they are the give away anything they don't really own party..

I have never seen such a group of paranoid, raving, jingoistic, trolls as this group of China bashers. And by the way Nixon, a Republican went to China and opened the world to them.
