I have philosophical ideas about this. I will have to write a whole post in response though (and will very soon) Thank you for asking such an intelligent question. It would no doubt effect the economy. More to come sometime this week. -Mommy Zabs Nicole,

(i understand ultimately more jobs would be created but that wouldn't offset quickly.) where's the balance? would love to hear the reality of that strain. because though a lot of your readers would agree with this (including me), do we want to pay 4- 6 times the amount we are paying now for toys? eliz.- i am so much in support of this, but i’d be interested for you to also have blogs/articles on how this would effect our economy, trade relations, possibly nuclear activity if we were to do what you’re suggesting and cut off all imports from china. i too am astonished that it seems every week a new product (mostly TOYS) are being recalled but i wonder what it would do to us in an already declining economy. could we really afford for our dollar to lose any more value?

I'm impressed with how will you thought this through. This is definitely a blog to watch. Do you have any tips for finding out whether an item is made in China, or do you just look on the label? I will definitely start doing #6 right now. What do you think about supporting missions project in China? Will that help? Wow! I’m impressed with how will you thought this through.
