Well, that wasn't their idea. It's a good plan, though, and one that I'm sure a lot of Americans wish they had the protection of right now. :D

ROHS was the outcome of the "jacked-up" standards EU and USA came up with. Your own profit-hungry corporations made sure computer hardware manufacturing shifted from your place over to Asia, then your governments jacked up the standards, and now your corporations expect them to keep giving you their produce, which tries hard to play the balancing act between cutting costs and trying to conform to standards that keep rising according to the whims of your environment protection boards. You only have your own corporations to blame, not the Chinese. They've been making hardware in accordance with the standards that were set to them decades ago when they started getting business from your corporations.

My own profit-hungry corporations? :laugh: You assume that I reap the profits of American corporatism a bit much.

The Chinese are very smart people -- they could've taken the time to produce toxic-free products if they wanted to. The fact that they didn't speaks of quite a bit of greed on their part, dont'cha think?
