I hate seeing Made in China on everything

It's all suspicious. If we all threw it all out, the landfills would explode in a toxic mess. How do we get rid of it?

Pay American workers more to make the crap here in the US. Ultimately we will pay more but Americans love their chachkies.

But also we don't want the environmental mess. Americans love to over consume, it's so depressing.

Tchotchkes.

Stop buying it whenever possible. Sometimes it’s unavoidable, but majority of things can be found made in USA if you look around and are willing to pay a bit more.

Watch out for the made in PRC markings too, they’re starting to change it to that probably to confuse you.

Omg just stop.

Do your homework and don't buy things made in China not hard at all.

Shame on you.

Why don't you set up a factory to make the crap here?

You won't, because no one wants to work for those wages here.

Just enjoy your cheap crap and stop complaining. Get back to work.

All my made in China stuff is fine.

If you don't want to buy things made in china, research how to buy things made in the US (or other countries you feel comfortable supporting). You will pay more, but it can be a worthwhile exercise. I had a friend who bought a condo a few years ago and her pandemic project was fully furnishing it with entirely American-made goods, which I think is awesome.

Agree!

It's hard with inflation but I'm trying to buy American when possible. Cut down on the Amazon crap. Spend more per item but buy fewer things.

Looking on etsy for American made versions of things when I'm tempted to buy off Amazon.

Don't worry, lots of manufacturing is moving away from China and to South East Asia as the Chinese middle class expands.

America can't compete with Chinese slave labor, sadly.

China is cheaper and faster.

The company I work for now has a product manufactured there. China producing the product makes it 72% cheaper than when it was made in USA. That's a big, big profit for my company.
