Is it ethical to buy a product directly from China?

Please everyone keep your shirt on. I just don't know about the labor practices over there and the implications of giving them my money directly. I would like to be informed before doing it.

Probably more fair than buying it from America. American workers are overworked, underpaid, often lack adequate benefits. And are taxed to death. Most of the rest of the world has a flat tax; no exceptions. Those that escape it are known to be criminals or politicains. Recognized at least.
Furthermore America's most recent model is to slowly reduce freedom, access to information and income while increasing exposure to vices doubIing taxes and supporting selective enforcement and favortism. Maybe "communism" has benefits compared to an aristocracy led by oligarchs?
