Is there ANYTHING we won’t import from China? I am so sick of seeing “Made in China” or “Product of China” on nearly everything in our local stores.

I do not believe we can live “China-Free”, no matter how hard we try... parts in US made cars, so much furniture, 98% of all electronics sold in the US, Even a startlingly large portion of food in the grocery store (especially canned goods).

I make a conscious effort to not buy Chinese goods. Have even gone out of my way to find non-Chinese products (at a significant cost in $). Yet the Chinese goods continue to flood our markets.

Not all of the stuff that we buy is from China. Much of it comes from other places, like Bangladesh and Mexico.

I'm with you!!.....My family is trying to live "China-Free" as well.....it is very difficult. If we are looking for something in particular and can't find one that is NOT made in China, then we resolve ourselves to buy the most inexpensive one.....that way China gets the least of our money.

We are so disgusted with the saturation of crap that comes from that still-communist country. I can not believe that we are funding their suppressive idealogy with our money. It is truly the most insane thing ever!

I was recently in the market for a toaster, but the only one not made in China was made in England, and it cost more than $200.00. So I had to settle for a Chicom toaster, which cost about $20.00.
