Made in America
Posted by: <@...>
Joe Smith starts the day early, having set his alarm clock(made in China),
for 600 A.M. While his coffee pot(made in China), is perking, he puts his
blow dryer(made in Taiwan) to work and shaves with his electric razor(made in
China). He puts on a dress shirt(made in Taiwan), his designer jeans (made in
Singapore), and a pair of tennis shoes (made in Korea). After cooking up some
breakfast in his new electric skillet(made in Philippines), he sits down to
figure out on his calculator(made in Mexico), how much he can spend today.
After setting his watch(made in Switzerland), to the radio(made in China), he
goes out, gets in his car(made in Germany), goes looking as he has been for
months, for a good paying American job. At the end of another discouraging
and fruitless day, Joe decides to relax for a while. He puts on a pair of
sandals (made in China) pours himself a glass of wine(made in France), and
turns on his TV (made in Japan), and ponders again why he can't find a good
paying American job.
