The Flippin' Chinese

[lugebob]

The Chinese have been praticing clandestine chemical warfare longer than you realize.
Did you ever wonder why it seems like our schools are getting dumber and dumber. Why, over the past 30 years or so, they have had to dumb down the curriculum taught to the students and expect less from them when the day is done, as compaired to "back in the day"? Have you ever wondered about the mental capacity of the teachers themselves? It is not the schools fault.

I finally figured it out one day when I had to teach a class to some young Navy electronic techs. After writing on the board for a few hours I got lightheaded and had to take a break. That is when I figured out the Chinese have been poisoning our teachers and kids for many years with the invention and production of "dry erase markers and cleaner". For about 180 days a year teachers and our little loved ones are shut up in a room left to inhale a myriad toxic solvents and dyes that can rot their brain and lungs. Now we have generations of dry erase babies teaching the next batch. This will go on forever causing a forever, spiral decay in the brainpower of our new generations unless we do something about it...

Bring back Chalk and we will once again rule the thinking world.

Chalk "may" cause lung cancer, but it wont make you dumb.... besides... it makes for a great antacid when you forgot the Tums.

That is my theory and I am sticking to it.!!!!! Find yourself an MSDS sheet or take a few big inhales of a fresh marker and see for yourself.

Expo dry erase markers (the brand most available) are non-toxic and are made in the USA.

theres probably more lead in a tackle box, then there is in these toys. No one seems to be recalling split shot or making sinkers out of other metal

Hmmmm... unexplained increase in autism in Amercian children over the years. Coincidence.... maybe... maybe not.

Where's the anti-vaccine space shot, she can tell you why.

or are you suggesting the lack of lead in our current society is causing the rise in Autism??

yep, that's been proven to be a safe choice the last couple hundred of years..

I'm saying that our babies have been sucking on and playing with lead based toys and being burped with lead based bibs from China for years. Even trace amounts of lead in a childs system can have detrimental results to development.

Luckily he was just a wee bit upset but still, who should be the target of your anger? The Chinese and all the production short cuts they take with food and finished products or the American firms that continue to do business with them?

According to mattel's website they are implementing a host of new safeguards to prevent this from happening again. Why weren't they doing this before? They at least owe it to their stockholders to take every precaution to protect the consumer. BUT the subcontractor that painted the toys were given safe paint and they decided to use a lead filled paint instead.



Ok rant done carry on.

American Firms for doing business with the Chinese Slave Labor Industry .....
