How very interesting that the factory "meets" ISO standards, allegedly, but has not even rudimentary safety standards. So is it safe to say that Chinese mfg. standards are similar to what Mf. was like in the US in the late 1800's?? So, Chinese workers make a little over 6,000 a year, work in potentially unsafe conditions, assuredly have little or no job security, and the Chinese government keeps the yuan artifically low so that the US continues to use this system. Wow, the glories of "Free Trade"!Sheryl/Mom/Grandmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05521097231294006327noreply@blogger.com
