Chinese government and industry: corrupt from beginning to end.

However, as this case and the pet food case reveals, even the cautious can become the victim of their profit and bribe driven, unscrupulous practices.

Although it is not always possible, I try to have nothing to do with them.

You can start to say the same thing about OUR government. With "free trade" and public/private partnerships, there is no line between our government and the transnational corporations pushing global commerce above safety, national security and citizen sovereignty.

Just ask Senator Feinstein how much of her family fortunes is dependent on China. Ask the Bush brothers how much money they expect to make from mandated ethanol from Brazil.
