On stories about manufactured products like Chery cars receiving one star for safety after the high-strength steel in the body is replaced with cheap soft steel to save money -- resulting in death trap cars.

On stories about fradulent counterfeit "Boeing" and "Airbus" parts, made in China, finding their way into the supply chain.

You can pretend the problem doesn't exist -- but I sincerely hope, for your sake, that people you love aren't flying on an aircraft impacted by the endemic corruption to be found there.
