Yes, with reservations. I agree with the other person who wants to be able to buy the best quality . If there is no comparable product in the US then there is no question.
If the difference is in price, since labor is so cheap in , the decision is harder.
The problem is not only there is a trade imbalance, which keeps dragging down our economy, but also the loss of jobs.
It is no longer just that China makes inexpensive (compared to US goods) products, but that many US companies as well as companies around the world, including from Japan (SONY), are farming out manufacturing to China.
The question is not when will it end, but what happens when there is no one left in the US who can afford to buy Chinese goods when all our jobs are gone.
edit:
Those who point out cheap goods come out of and manufacturing has been farmed out to other nations where the cost of labor is very low are correct.
So, it is not just China that presents this problem, but that is how the question was framed.
This also doesn’t change the basis of my argument, that relatively inexpensive goods from an offshore company or a US company that has farmed its manufacturing offshore, is fraught with problems and deserves consideration from every consumer.
