Boycott Chinese Toys

What ever happened to Quality Control or Quality assurance? Toy companys and other manufacturers have a duty to oversee and test the product they contract out. It is just common sense that a company must assign knowledgeable QA staff to scrutinize a percentage of the product during manufacture to assure it meets the company's standards. The media has focused on the manufacturing country as being the culprit when the US company is equal negligent. The public's perception of responsibilty is skewed. Part of the financial savings in contracting with manufacturers overseas is that there is no oversight. Quality and reliable products are produced by companies that are involved in all aspects of their production. Ask any business owner if he/she would delegate costly, crucial assignments and not check in again until the project was delivered to the customer.
My comments should not be construed to be defending the shoddy manufacturing practices of the Chinese, but rather an observation of the lack of responsibility on the part of US manufacturers.

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO AMERICAN MADE.WELL THE UNIONS DROVE COMPANYS TO CHINA COME BACK NON UNION..MAINE TOWN ARE LOOSING PAPER COMPANYS THANKS TO BUSH/CHEANY AND HURTING AMERICANS WITH HIGH OIL AND GAS.COME BACK TO AMERICA TOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I strongly agree with you; the only way to stop this is to boycott any and all bad products, food, pet food from China - all will get the message immediaely. Who knows if we buy American we might just save a neighbor's job also.
