Perhaps you could show me an example of 'standing up for Communist
China'.

Su Buying from them. Very simple.

I would love to hear you say you buy nothing made in China, including
components.



Assuming I have a choice, and I'm aware of where something's made, I buy
as little as possible from China. You probably find that odd, the idea of
reading labels.



I don't knowingly buy anything made in the PRC. Sometimes you can't avoid
it, or you find out about it after the sale.


The world is changing. We have a much more global economy. Isolationism is
a thing of the past. Don't get stuck in the mud.

For me, it's not isolationism. I don't like supporting dictatorships. It's
that simple. Chinese workers are not major beneficiaries of our business.
Factory owners are the winners, and they're almost always chosen based on
party allegiances.

It's not isolationism. I'm probably the only poster here who actually
spent a considerable amount of time in the PRC.

And a lot of time in Vietnam, and a lot of time in the Chesapeake Bay!
