Why would they buy overpriced underquality items?\nIsn't that why you import everything from China in the first place?

Why are so many things made in China?\n\nManufacturing, especially the mass production of assembly-line goods, is in constant flux.  Companies in every country are looking for the cheapest place to manufacture goods.\nThis trend has accelerated by the pursuit of Free Trade agreements throughout the world.  These agreements create simultaneous reductions in barriers that nations use to protect their native industries.\nThe reduction of tariffs and customs, taxes which are paid on products or raw materials being imported or exported, the goal of trade agreements.  \n"Globalization" is the name of this trend: the constant search for low cost and high quality production regardless of national borders.  Thus, Japanese car makers build some assembly plants in the US, because the raw materials (steel, electronics, tires) are nearby, and the cost of shipping the vehicles to market is very small.  \nMany United States corporations contract to have their products made or assembled abroad because labor costs are much lower than they are in the US.\nChina has profited from this trend because it has an unlimited work force and wages are very low.  So, the production of thousands of products is awarded to Chinese companies.  If you visit any of the low-cost "dollar stores" in this country, you will find that virtually every item is made in China.\nOpponents of globalization argue that this trend is very unhealthy for workers.  By sending business only to the labor market that pays the lowest wages, wages are kept depressed for all other workers.  And, the reason that costs are so low in China is that workers don't have any benefits like vacation, health, or retirement.\nFor now, China has a huge work force willing to work for low compensation, great ports and railroads for the shipment of goods, and local resources of coal and iron for steel making and fuel.

Do a search on the Dept. of State government website and see if they have anything.\n\nI know that in China some things have changed, but not enough. Not too long ago, a class of school children were killedand injured making fireworks during school, which they were forced to do.  95% of fireworks in the U.S. are made in China.\n\nIf you are interested, e-mail me and I will send you my research paper on whether U.S. businesses should do business in China with regard to human rights issues.  It may give you some thoughts and leads.\n\nSue

Which ever one that is made in America.

Most products now are made by some other companies in China or other Asian countries because they use cheap labor over there.  For clothing, I know that the Quacker Factory, Bob Mackie and other famous designers who have lines of clothing or other products are outsourcing their products to those countries to be able to sell them cheaper to us.

First of course you would have to be able to bet the price of the same product that could be made overseas.\n\nYou would contact a buying agent at Walmart, ( in Arkansas) and present what you have.  It will have to have a large profit percentage for walmart.\n\nAlso if they can find the same product cheaper even a few cents cheaper, they will change providers even after years of good service.

yes.  Actually many products that are made in China are of better quality than those made in the US.  China has made great strides in technologies development in the last 10 years.

Been to Walmart lately?  The vast majority of their items are made there.  Bunch of junk if you ask me.  They buy for pennies and sell for dollars, not to mention that they routinely put american manufacturers out of business and switch to a foreign suppliers.  Great for Walmart, but at the expense of product quality loss of US jobs.  How do they expect us to buy their products if we don't have jobs to earn money to purchase those products?

of course... look at the clothing tags on the things in your closet!  and check out those nikes... a lot of the things you own are made in Malaysia

Remember the "Made in America" signs in Wal-Mart years ago.  Notice they are gone?  Knowing that you couldn't find an American-made teddy bear (they are made in China and shipped cheaply on a slow boat), I took my child and went to a department manager and told them I was looking for a teddy bear made in America.  My wife and I stood back chuckling while two mangagers and some employees were going through every teddy bear on a fruitless search.  Soon after, those signs disappeared.

Brahma is an exclusive import for Wal-Mart.  I believe they are manufactured in India.
