China Mall International LLC or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Deals

[Young_Turk]

With China's Low wage labor, poor environmental protections, government subsidies, theft of intellectual property and cheap shipping is why they are able to out compete any local business.

We can’t complain and want cheap things at the same time .
