The list of recalled Chinese products

Regular readers will know that I'm not a big fan of things "Made in China", especially things for Autumn. Books printed in China sometimes use lead-based ink, and the plastic 'stuff', while cheap, there's a hidden cost to the thing. The first is the cost to American commerce. Money spent on something from China goes to China. Second, the cost of transporting materials to China to be assembled and then from China to be sold. That's a hidden cost.

Then there's a cost of quality. it's a less well-defined cost, because it involves a lot of things. But one of them is hazard. So here is a list of products recalled due to hazard.
