There are two main reasons why China can make things so much cheaper than we can. First, they don’t have labor laws. The working conditions there are inhumane and their wages are atrocious, in some cases, literally slave labor. The second reason is because they have no environmental laws. When you don’t have to spend money to dispose of your pollutants properly, you can make things at a much lower cost. They just dump their pollutants in the ocean. Same thing with their air pollutants as well. Basically, corporations send their products to China so that they can destroy the environment out of consumers’ sights and cut costs. It’s all a sham
