Something to ponder.

[1HI4x4]

John Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock


(MADE IN JAPAN ) for 6 am.


While his coffeepot


(MADE IN CHINA )


was perking, he shaved with his

electric razor
(MADE IN HONG KONG )


He put on a


dress shirt


(MADE IN SRI LANKA ),



designer jeans



(MADE IN SINGAPORE )


and


tennis shoes



(MADE IN KOREA)



After cooking his breakfast in his new


electric skillet


(MADE IN INDIA )

he sat down with his



calculator



(MADE IN MEXICO )



to see how much he could spend today. After setting his



watch



(MADE IN TAIWAN )



to the radio



(MADE IN INDIA )



he got in his car



(MADE IN GERMANY )



filled it with GAS



(from Saudi Arabia )



and continued his search



for a good paying AMERICAN JOB.



At the end of yet another discouraging



and fruitless day



checking his



Computer



(made in MALAYSIA ),



John decided to relax for a while.



He put on his sandals



(MADE IN BRAZIL ),



poured himself a glass of



wine



(MADE IN FRANCE )



and turned on his



TV



(MADE IN INDONESIA ),



and then wondered why he can't



find a good paying job



in AMERICA



AND NOW HE'S HOPING HE CAN GET HELP FROM A PRESIDENT



MADE IN KENYA



BUY AMERICAN!

[Lt.Del]

He could always get a  job working as a telemarketer.  No, wait, they are in India.  OK, he can get a job working on computers.  No, India as well.  Wait, how do we know Chris isn't in India operating THIS site?  Birmingham, India.   
Well, if not India, China will buy this country and we will no longer be the U.S.A. because we will owe them EVERYTHING--we are so much in debt.  Has a country ever gone into foreclosure?

[DnStClr]

Those of us who've been layed off can say amen.  And along with it, let's hope for better business practices and more practical union demands, right?

[Lt.Del]

Tariffs.   That's what we need, Tariffs of incoming products to put Americans back to work.  Why should we care about Indonesia? (oh, except that Czar Obama used to live there).
