Thank goodness for tort lawyers
Hmmm, it is amazing to see the WSJ looking to the courts to solve the Chinese quality problem. Normally, the Republican mouthpieces hate lawyers, because they sue their business contributors. I agree with them, if we left it up to the Feds to solve the junk problem it would never happen. Bush and his buddies have shown how easy it is to subvert the government agencies that were put in place to protect us.
As for the global warming bullshit. Yes human production of CO2 is raising the global temperature. No, it is not globally catastrophic. It is catastrophic locally. The climate is always changing. We barely got out of the "little ice age" 150 years ago. CO2 levels have been lower for last few million years than they were for hundreds of millions of years prior to that. Blame India, since its crashing into Asia produces all that rock dust that sops up CO2 and delivers it to the ocean floor via those lovely Indian rivers. We are going to run out of fossil fuel long before global catastrophe, whatever that is. We cannot harm Gaia, she is very tough. We can make it hard for ourselves, but we are almost irrelevant in the long term to Gaia. Gaia will enjoy her next ice age just as soon as we finish off the last of the fossil fuel in a couple of hundred years.
