Although it is probably not that difficult to identify a poorly made pair of sneakers or a handbag, it may be very difficult for the average person to recognize a counterfeit power-supply, glucose testing strip, insulin pen needle, tires, or baby formula.

Suggesting that counterfeit products are not really a bad thing is like suggesting a doctor with a fake medical degree is not really a bad thing. Come-on...get real!
