Hello Fellow Dope Fiends and Deviants
I have just received an extremely inexpensive hygrometer that I paid £3.45 for (with free postage from Ebay).
The instructions were barely readable - which poses the question - "If these people are aiming products at Western Markets why don't they find someone who can write English half decently....?"
The word "HUMITURE" repeatedly appearsI can only surmise that HUMITURE is a contraction of HUMIDITY and TEMPERATURE...?
About 3 months ago I read that a serious Chinese recession would do more to effect the global economy than the 1920's stock market crash (that resulted in the Great Depression) or the 2008 'Credit Crunch'.
Am I alone in being terrified that the health of our entire planets economy is reliant upon a Communist Country's production of 99c plastic crap?
Democratically elected politicians dare not speak to the Dalai Lama for fear of Chinese disfavour....
The balance of national debts means that China has a disproportionate influence on our systems of government.
Do we really need Chinese made shit so much that we are prepared to accept their interference, their disregard for human rights and their idiotic practice of using two sticks to eat food - AND IT'S RICE, for fucks sake!
Extend the Great Wall of China and leave them to sell toxic plastic sex toys and imitation Swiss Army Knives to each other - while we go back to making quality merchandise, respecting human rights and believing in democracy.
FUCK CHINA!
