Default Why the American Economy Fell Off The Cliff

WHY THE AMERICAN ECONOMY FELL OFF THE CLIFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





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 HOPES THAT HE CAN GET HELP FROM A PRESIDENT BORN IN KENYA

Wow, that was funny. It's maybe because these lazy ass Americans don't work hard enough. Stupid AIG, hey, I'm not in USA. I will be soo pissed if my money was going to a company like AIG. Mexicans work so hard to get paid. Maybe Americans should be at least grateful of what they have.

The last time I saw something with "Made in America" written on it, I was in elementary school.

That is exactly the reason why the American economy went to hell. You can only ship so many jobs out of the country until things start to fall down. NAFTA needs to straighten up and open up their eyes. America also needs to start buying America and taxing the heck out of imports from other countries.

I was just doing a test to see if I could find anything in my room that was made in the USA. The only thing I found that was made in the USA is my roll of Toilet paper LOL. Everything else is mostly made in China.
