Spread the word(Copy and Paste this to your e-mail list of people), DO NOT buy ANY product MADE IN CHINA if you can help it, and instead buy a little more expensive alternative Made in the USA, Canada, Europe, or Australia. Spend a little more for a non-China made item please if it is possible!
I could never figure out why the USA boycotts communist Cuba but does not boycott communist China who have done and are doing much worse things? But I think it is a suck holing, kissing butt, brown nosing reason.
I can get into long detailed economic reasons why not to buy Made in China, but I think a lot of you already know many of them, and I do not have the time here now.
Nothing personal against the some of the very good people in China, but this boycott must happen at an economic level against the Chinese govenment who are the ones causing the problems. There are so many overwhelming both economic and non-economic reasons not to buy Made in China. There is also a certain way to read a UPC code to tell if it is Made In China.
China has both more News Reporters and Christians in jail than any other country in the world.
ALSO this is one of many, many reasons and another reason, that is non-economic, not to buy Made in China:

Authorities raid worship service in Hunan Province, China
(Source: ChinaAid)
Chinese authorities raided a house church worship service held by members of the Hope Church in the city of Changsha, Hunan Province, on December 12 (2010). At approximately 9:30 a.m., dozens of believers were gathered for worship when police officers and government officials arrived on scene. The authorities forced the believers to disperse and confiscated several items belonging to the church, including the podium, chairs and air-conditioner. They also took into custody two of the believers -- Pastor Zing Jinfu and Minister Le -- who were taken to a local police station and questioned for a couple of hours.
It is not known if this raid was part of the nationwide "Operation Deterrence" campaign that the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party launched on December 1 (2010) against all house churches in the nation. Even if it was not officially part of this campaign, there is fear that local authorities could be increasing the frequency and severity of their moves against this church in the coming weeks in relation to the nationwide crackdown.
Pray that members of the Hope Church will be encouraged to continue to meet together despite opposition (Hebrews 10:23-25). Ask God to embolden all believers in China to continue to proclaim their faith in Him boldly and demonstrate His love to others in the nation. Pray for significant and lasting advances in religious freedom in China.
