Yes. The Chinese government does not enforce safety laws on products or manufacturing. This is not racists. It’s just how it is. This is why so much of the worlds products are made in China. Since businesses do not have to obey any safety or environmental standards they can make stuff really cheap. As a result we get toxic drywall !!!, anti-freeze in toothpaste and poison in dog food.
It’s a race to the bottom on price and quality. If you tried to open up a manufacturing company and make a decent safe product while paying your employees a decent wage you would have to compete against a company that pays it’s workers $1.00 per day and puts hazardous waste into their product.
Again, this is not racists. It’s realistic.
About Chinese Toxic Drywall
Chinese made toxic drywall is causing unpleasant odors and possibly leading to electric problems in dozens of homes constructed during the housing boom. Some builders and environmental consultants are investigating whether the drywall is emitting sulfur-based gases that may be corroding air-conditioner coils, computer wiring and metal picture frames. Builders use domestically produced drywall, which is made mainly from the mineral gypsum. During the 2006 housing boom and the scramble for construction material along the Gulf Coast for reconstruction after Hurricane Katrina suppliers began importing drywall from China.
