I always try to avoid buying Chinese products even if it means paying more

I understand this as a matter of principle, but does it have an actual effect on China?

Probably not...because most people couldn't be bothered to do the same. But at least it will soothe my conscience, if it ever comes about that we have to fight their military, which in large part has been funded by American consumers and corporations.
