    Yeah but how is that not China’s fault too? Americans buy cheap products from there because China pays their employees pennies.

      From what I understand their minimum wages aren’t bad, it’s the enforcement that sucks. Everyone buys from them because labor laws are overlooked, but if they weren’t - there’s a risk manufacturing would move away and shrink. Bit of an ouroboros. I’d say both parties are to blame, but the paying one gets more of it.
