    You'd like to see us execute politicians for non-capital offenses, for political reasons, like the Chinese. Ok.

    When they are negligent with out tax dollars, yes. Such a penalty would curtail their actions.

    There was more than just the slowing of the economy. Zheng Xiaoyu's corruption lead to cautious buys from China. For a time, nobody knew how many food materials escaped testing. He was convicted of taking bribes to keep suppliers food from undergoing testing. This lead to the poisoning of cats and dogs from Chinese make food products, and others. It wasn't just the food products used in cat and dog food.

    wiki: 2007 Chinese export recalls:

    Just do some keyword searches for the recalls, the man, etc.

    I'll bet the faulty gypsum was a payoff you use man-made gypsum from waste rather than earth mimed gypsum, saving the Chinese company money and having to bribe an official.

    Maybe he's next to be executed, who ever is in charge of construction materials, if my assumption is right. China is no pansy when it come to punishment.
    Thanks. Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but the man was executed because of corruption, not food poisoning. Not that's justifiable either way.

    And may I have the link that refers to the 'measurably slowed down Chinese economy' based on our lack of purchasing cat and dog food?

    It didn't deter the Chinese official, even though he faced that possibility...

    If you followed the news back then, this investigation started from the outcry of pets dying. Traced to tainted pet food. The bad ingredients traced to China, and who signed off on the inspections. They found the bribes and other corruption that started with the pet food.

    I have a reasonably sound guess that the tainted gypsum products will end up in corruption charges too.

    Aren't some things common sense? It didn't take long at all to know the contaminated products all came from China food sources. I'm sure you can find a link. I'm not looking.

    This whole incident cause trade problems because of the lack of trust.
