An occasional spot check wouldn't bring world commerce to a halt! If an item 
fails
and it's found that the mfr left out critical filtering components, the whole load goes
back to China.

We don't live in a perfect world and expecting something like this with
a gov't that is 17trillion in the hole is crazy.
Proactively having the government check everything does seem
impractical, indeed.

However, putting rules in place that oblige manufacturers
and/or importers to replace faulty equipment at their expense
(instead of stiffing the consumers) might be a good deterrent
to people sticking FCC stickers on untested equipment...
