17/09: Made in China Strikes Again

Poison Toothpast. Baby Formula Causes Kidney Stones. These and many other headlines have this in common: they refer to Made in China goods.

Now, chairs and sofas that can cause eczema. Article here.

Would someone please explain to me again, why do we trade with these folks making dangerous products? Why do we help support their murderous, aggressive government by enriching their nation?

An agricultural economy I understand. An industrial economy I understand. Can anyone point me to a book that can help me understand how our present economy works?
