Americans Cannot Resist Chinese Goods

Although recent revelations have shown that Chinese goods can be dangerous, Americans have not been deterred from purchasing Chinese products. Recently it has been discovered that toys covered in lead paint ans contaminated food have been imported from China to the U.S.

In a recent poll, about seventy percent of respondents said that they are aware of the country of origin of the products that they purchase. Forty percent of this group said that they think products imported from China are more dangerous than those imported from other countries.

Trade relations between the U.S. and China have suffered from the recent findings that Chinese imports may be unsafe. The U.S. is now being more critical of goods coming from the communist country. Has the desire to become a global trading power led China to neglect the quality of its products? Perhaps, stricter regulation on imports will correct the quality problem and ease tensions of the U.S.-China trading relationship.
