Thanks for the post.
We need to ban everything from China. Producing goods with Chinese labor, instead of American labor, costs Americans more in lost wages than it saves in price reductions.
Add to this the fact that not only are Chinese goods low quality, they're also dangerous to the health of American consumers.
At the very least, we should terminate PNTR with China.

First they poison our pets, now they want to poison our kids.
How is this not a form of state sponsored terrorism?

The US is only recalling these 1 million toys. All painted items from RED China should be recalled. I believe the US population will support a recall of all these poison paint items.

Fisher-Price needs to be prosecuted for criminal negligence.

China recall executive commits suicide" BEIJING (AFP) - - The head of a Chinese company that made Sesame Street and other toys that were recalled in the United States due to safety fears has committed suicide, a state-run newspaper reported on Monday.
Zhang Shuhong, the boss of Lee Der Industrial Co Ltd, was found dead in a factory warehouse in southern Guangdong province on Saturday, the Southern Metropolis newspaper said.
Fisher-Price, a subsidiary of Mattel, this month recalled nearly one million toys, including popular Sesame Street and Dora the Explorer-branded models sold in US stores, because of fears they contained toxic lead paint.
Many of the toys were produced by Lee Der.
The government last week ordered Lee Der and another toy manufacturer at the centre of a similar high-profile recall in the United States to suspend their exports.
Zhang, who is from Hong Kong, was found with "deep marks" on his neck, said the paper, based in the southern city of Guangzhou.
A company official surnamed Liu told the paper Zhang had committed suicide.
No further information was given on the exact cause of death, with the paper reporting that police were investigating...."
