This just made me SOOO fucking mad!! The reason this country is fucked!!
Want to know the reason why unemployment is so high?

Want to know why there are NO jobs in this country??

Want to see a list of traitors who sold out the American people just so they can make more money?

This list does not even include ALL of the companies.

I was thinking, heck, I'll just stop buying from the companies on this list! But then, the list is so fucking long, and then, who is left?

All the company has to do is change its name, sell it to a parent company, accusitions, etc, etc...

Corporate America is the real criminal!!!

You have names on this list like American Eagle Outfitters for fuck sake!!

Re: This just made me SOOO fucking mad!! The reason this country is fucked!!
It's called Capitalism and it's what made this country.

If you want the "freedeom" to start a company and make money doing it, you generally start small and then as you build and expand, you'd go where there's still a profit margin to be had as well. Many companies can't keep their shareholders happy with all they need to conform to here.

Don't get mad at the companies - get mad at the government, tax structure, et al. - or admit that Capitalism isn't the best structure anymore. After all, companies aren't in existence to provide jobs - but to create revenue for business owners and shareholders.

Perhaps you did not hear in the news where they fished something like 5000 dead pigs out of the river in bejing??

Even though this is a very long list of American and other foreign corporations in China,
it is certainly not a complete listing. We have only included a few of the names you may recognize.

This is a list of companies who either own factories, or have contract factories producing their products
in China. Some of the companies produce 100% of their products there, and others only produce parts,
or certain ingredients for their products. The list below is approximately 1% of the actual Corporate list.

Companies such as Avon, GE, and AT&T for example, have been in China and manufacturing products
for 20 to 30 years. Most American consumers simply had no idea. Previously their source was Japan.




Now Grown In China- Nearly 50% of all American apple products are now grown and processed in Mainland China according to government reports ending 2006 and again in 2007. We are surprised and terrified. ...not just because of the loss of jobs, but also our staff knows first hand how dangerous it is to grow and process ANY food products in China.

If you really wanna blow a Truth gasket, watch the documentary called "The Corporation". It is shown on LINK tv now and again. All the brands mentioned are in there, in one form or another. We ceased to be a "country" sometime in the early 80's, IMHO . America is now a business.

Ya'know some of those regulations are a VERY GOOD THING.
Not being able to dump chemicals in rivers. Having a worker die in the meat grinding machine being a newsworthy event instead of something that happens all the time. We can THANK regulations for that. You know how greedy companies can be...or maybe you don't.

Those other countries need more regulations for safety, human rights and planetary reasons.

Grow up.

Thanks for the list, op. I've been buying with a conscious and although some of the things I've replaced, it's a big reminder how much more I need to do. There's 2 things I've been putting off replacing that this post just made me prioritize taking a chance on a few different products I've been looking at purchasing instead.
