New safety concerns over Chinese-made fireworks.

Every year, millions of fireworks are set off in neighborhoods all over the United States in celebration of our Independence.  What I have always found to be interesting about this, is that many of these people celebrate their Freedom by supporting a communist economy:

Last summer, it was Chinese-made toys, pet food and meat that caused concern. This July 4th holiday, there are new worries about the overly explosive nature of its fireworks. This week, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a report saying it found that nearly half of the shipments they inspected coming from China do not meet Federal safety guidelines. That’s especially worrying since, according the American Pyrotechnic Association, 98 percent of fireworks used in backyards and front lawns across America are manufactured in China. NEWSWEEK’s Caitlin McDevitt spoke with Scott Wolfson, a chief spokesman for the Commission about its findings and why this Independence Day could be more volatile than in previous years.

That’s right folks, 98% of those fireworks you set off in your backyard were made by people living under communism.  Your purchase of these products… I won’t get into the fact that 80% of the products you buy also come from China right now… supports the communist economy which is growing so fast it is becoming the largest contributor to the growing climate crisis the world is facing.

Happy Independence Day.
