How could THAT possibly happen!?!?! (companies, million, CEO, jobs)

[Sporin]

I think it's fascinating that us companies are acting all shocked that their slave wage, child labor, Communist, off shore, low-bid producers are sending over tainted pet food, toothpaste laced with antifreeze and a million plus toys made with lead paint.

Imagine That®

Of course they have to "act" shocked...as if they care. The only thing they care about is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[gardener34]

The only reason they care is then people will not buy their stuff anymore. Then they'll lose thier jobs.

It is cheaper to do damage control after the fact, than test the stuff before it goes to market or put a system in place that checks the raw materials for poison before it goes to the public.

it is nuts.

I just watched the CEO of Mattel on tv going on and on about how rigorously they test their products before they go on the market......uh they are on the market and full of lead paint. No more Mattel toys for me.
