I know... I went shopping yesterday and had to put half the cool things I found back 'cause they were made in China.

The vast majority of American's simply don't give a shit - on many levels.

Walmart's success is a testament to the consumer priorities of the American people. Those priorities set the pace for the market - and influence the variety of goods that we have to choose from.

I support the idea, though.
I agree, most people don't care, but if the few of us that are awake enough to see what is going on and do something about it we might just make a difference. Besides, a person has to stand for something.

How many Iraqi civilians died since the CIA aided by the Pentagon took over Iraq? Why don't you boycott the US government?

I think China, Russia and Arab countries will end up boycotting the US, and America will get fucked.

Americans are big pussies even more coward than Arabs.
I am guessing you aren't from the USA. Yeah America sucks, I hear it all the time. But it seems that it doesn't suck so much that people don't want to move here to live, borrow our money, and ask for our aid.

Is it perfect here? No, but we can still speak our mind without being dragged off in front of a religious court and stoned to death. When was the last time you heard of an American court sentencing a woman to 200 lashes for being in a car with a man that wasn't her relative? I think we left that sort of idiocy behind us a couple hundred years ago.
