Passage 2
Made-in-China Goods in the US
It's been ten years since China joined the World Trade Organization. Since then, the country's exports, particularly to the United States, have skyrocketed. Most Americans regularly buy products made or assembled in China. Steve Mores reports from the US city of Denver on how residents of that city feel about the made-in-China label.
They know it or not, the Americans are massive consumers of Chinese-made products. The US -China Business Council says the United States imported 365 billion dollars worth of products from China last year, more than tripled the amount ten years ago. China says the US is its top export mar- ket. And many shoppers here in Denver say they buy made-in-China goods almost every day.
While electrical equipment tops the list of imports from China, Americans flock to discount re- tailers like this to buy Chinese-made clothes, toys, footwear, and furniture. US International Trade Commission number showed the United States imported 29 billion dollars worth of apparel from China in 2010, and 16 billion dollars worth of footwear and accessories.
"But I think made-in-China . I think it's probably going to be an affordable product.
But series of safety concerns in recent years surrounding a number of products from China, including children's toys, has prompted some US consumers to look for alternatives close at home. "If could, I would buy everything made-in-America, and know that it was a high-quality product; I can trust it; I wasn't putting my family in any kind of danger."
But not all the US consumers are worried about the safety of products carrying the made-in- China label.
"Are those products made well? Yes, they are. The American corporations have the same standards when they have their products made in China as they do when they had their products made in the United States."
China has also become a major export of food to the United States. The US government says food imports from China more than tripled in value over the last decades. With so many goods for sale in the United States carrying the made-in-China label, most people we spoke to say they don't need to think twice about it. However, the vast majority say that they welcome the importation of Chinese goods as a way of keeping prices lower at American stores.
