Today thousands from Europe's steel industry march in Brussels demanding that China be denied Market Economic Status.

The European commission does not appear trustworthy.

Funny how capitalist free market competition is so desirable until you are screwed by it....

Like personal responsibility is desirable until you fuck up, then it's all someone else's faulty.

Humans suck......

What I don't get is how we let China bribe Afghani officials to mine copper and the USA built stations, putting American lives at rtisk to provide free protection for the mining operation.

Last month, US troops set up their bases running alongside a dirt track being built by a Chinese company as an access road to the Aynak copper reserves. The US forces are also making their presence felt in Logar province, where the Aynak deposit is located.

Although the US forces are deployed to ward off Taliban incursion in Kabul, inadverntally, they are also protecting Chinese workers at the Aynak copper site.

But they used the copper to build cheap goods for us, so it works out.

Yeah they build a lot of cheap stuff.

I have been trying to get a good toilet seat for some time now.

I have ran through so many can openers.

The crankshaft in my Vega is a Callies which was forged in China, but because the Chinese are always cheating on the quality, the steel is brought in from Russia.

In the construction industry, it's amazing the amount of cheap counterfeit junk posing as high-strength bolts, reinforcing steel, rigging equipment ...
