congradulations for boycotting chinese toys people - i'm sure the USA (and so forth) is just ecstatic that you will be paying more money to buy those home grown toys :-)
the base rate fallacy seems to be relevant here. i'm sure china manufactures more toys than the majority of other countries given their population size. but one toy (or 5) goes a bit wrong and people boycot the whole countries production. how many toys need to go wrong in the USA for people to boycot USA toys? i think you will find...
that boycotting chinese toys (given the base rate of the number of units of production) is unwarranted...
