Second Page News??????

Two Federal agencies, Consumer Product Safety Commission and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, announced yesterday that homeowners who used cheap Chinese drywall should remove it immediately.

And the story appears on the second page of the Business section. Seems like a front page story to me.

This announcement affects thousands of people who built homes from 2001 to 2008. One of the major areas affected would be the Southeast including many homes built in Louisiana after Katrina kicked their ass.

Now the Chinese are kicking their ass again.

The bad Chinese drywall emits Hydrogen Sulfide at rates 100 times more than normal drywall.

Health problems can range from coughing, nosebleeds, sinus infections and throat and lung irritation.

Claims have been filed in 37 states against the Chinese companies and the American companies that sold the product to home builders.

Changing the drywall in your house basically means GUTTING THE HOUSE.

NOBODY SEEMS TO KNOW WHO WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PROCESS OF GUTTING ONE'S HOME, SO OF COURSE LAWSUITS WILL BE FLOODING THE MARKET AND MORE LAWYERS WILL END UP WITH NICE BIG BOATS....

Can you list the items that have been produced by China that have contributed to medical problems for both humans and pets?

IT IS GETTING TO BE A NOT SO PRETTY LONG LIST.

The Chinese just bought Volvo so we have that to look forward to..........

The crusher will be when they announce that all socks sold at Wal-Mart have chemicals that release into the skin and cause numerous problems with inner organs.

All socks sold at Wal-Mart are made in China.

And the funny thing is that you really think I'm exaggerating the problem.

Silly me.

I'VE SAID IT BEFORE and I'll repeat it one more time....

Imagine when we were involved in the Cold War with Russia.

Now imagine that Russia was manufacturing everything that China does. Russia would not have gone broke and our conflict with them would be a huge problem on the world stage.

WE ARE DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN CREATING A CHINESE ECONOMIC EMPIRE and the last time I checked they were still a communist country.

This is most definitely one of those situations where later everybody will say.....

"How did this happen. We gave them all the money they needed to build every weapon on the planet AND CREATE THE LARGEST STANDING MILITARY IN HISTORY and it was all financed by cheap socks and products that harmed us and our pets."

AND IT SEEMS LIKE NOBODY REALLY CARES!

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the Chinese were f..king with our bees.

What's that funny smell coming out of the kitchen wall?
