AFAIK that is considered a racist term, so I have removed it.

Sorry, what i meant was as far as the chinese are concerned they have full control over the market and if they like worldwide economy, didnt actually notice the racist joke element

Just done some research on the word and didnt actually know it was a racist term!

And for the record, i know how hard they work AND what little they earn.

" About 100,000 people die each year in industrial and traffic accidents in China, many in the country's notoriously deadly coal mines. "

Thats a pretty scary figure ...100, 000 PEOPLE

Uk figure - work deaths for 2009 - 226
226 work deaths last year
