The greedy American cowardous outsourcing and importing bastards have made a deal with the devil and now they may be jeopardizing their own families’ health and well being. American companies are importing at such an alarming rate that they have now forgone quality assurance and this can be deadly for American consumers. First there was the deadly pet food which killed many Americans most beloved family members. Next came the deadly fish food which was fed to farm fed fish and sold to American fish eaters. Now there is a deadly potential in toothpaste. How much more of this do we have to fear? When will Americans see that the big advantage you have to buying American is health and safety. Maybe if more get poisoned or killed it will be a bigger issue but lets hope this is not the case. Let’s hope American Government steps in and starts to hold countries such as India and China responsible for their slave labor actions and their unsafe food products. Hopefully United States politicians step up to protect us from unfair foreign trade and unsafe food products. It’s time America steps back up as the world’s economic leader and safety and quality assurance should lead the way.

The FDA has ordered an investigation after the discovery that some Chinese manufacturers had used small amounts of diethylene glycol, a poisonous ingredient used in antifreeze, among other things, in brands of toothpaste sold in parts of the world. Here is one of the most terrible facts, one of the brands, Mr. Cool Junior, is marketed to children. The gum comes in five flavors such as bubble gum and strawberry which are considered attractive to children. Imagine if you poisoned your children because you bought a cheap foreign substitute, is this what Americans have become? Are we so greedy to chase the cheap buck that we would endanger our children, our friends, and our family? What have we become? Has the Chinese-Indian race to the bottom begun to affect our own humanity?

Look deep at yourself and at the companies you do business with. Maybe buying oil from a company who buys their oil from Iran should not be used. When Iranian money supports Hamas militants and tens of innocents Israeli’s get rocket bombed rockets built from the money used to buy that oil, will you feel good about your self? How about when innocent Chinese children are forced to work 18 hours a day 7 days a week, will you think of them when you are out playing with your own kids? How about Indian workers forced to work for pennies on the dollar in unsafe factories, will you consider them when you put on your Sundays’ best?

We need to first and foremost be concerned with American safety and prosperity and then we need to consider how our support of outsourced labor is actually destroying lives around the world. Ask your self, what have you, and we, become?
