    Good
    It's been known for years that computer components from China often have malware/spyware embedded in the ROMS to aid them in their campaign to steal as much intellectual property as they can.
    I work at times with a friend who owns his own networking company. He logs any and all attempts to breach his clients networks and well over 80% of the attempts originate in China.

    Not only vitamins. Goes to show how vastly powerful our industrial complex is. China can steal peoples info, hack the military industrial complex, sell shit drywall that ruins houses, send pet food that actually KILLS pets, copy movies, music,etc, wood flooring that sickens, and not much of a peep from our glorious leaders. They're salivating all over themselves to get a shot at the billions of new customers in China. I guess it's OLD news that we've been sold out. The real leaders owe nothing to the mass of earths citizens---only to the collection of money/power fascillitated by-----------------------ALL OF US.

    how about vitamins from eating a lot of different kinds of foods, instead of supliments to compensate for lunch at macdogburgers.
    you know, like a lot of salads and veggies and stuff like that.

    If a company did not profit from selling anything they would no longer be a company. The majority of vitamin companies are subsidiaries of pharma.

    Pharma was and is smart enough to recognize that it is a billion dollar feel good opportunity for them and profit from that.
