You assume wrong. There are no easy, glib answers to the mess we're in. Full scale awareness of the problem has to be acheived, and we're no where near that yet. Most people think Wal-Mart is great for America; there's no national outcry demanding alternatives, yet.
I do the best I can to avoid Chinese-made stuff. It is impossible to completely avoid it BUT we can buy more stuff made in the US and Taiwan.
