+1, & honestly how the heck can north american companies compete with this :insane: In Canada now they want to raise the minimum wage yet again so this $5 with free shipping product from China will cost 10 times that + shipping ! I know health & safety, taxes, insurance, crazy unions etc. but it's a global market and competition will dictate who will survive all that aside.
That's why we need trade agreements. Most companies in the west aren't playing on a even field. They are forced to comply and actually pay good wages but not for others.
