America for Sale $$$



Joe 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 JO B


At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day checking his Computer (Made In Malaysia ),


Joe 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 AM E R I C A....
Y'all gotta keep this one circulating
in hopes of waking up this country, please!

There are many people who would like to work but since many jobs have been outsourced, it is hard to find one.

The United States needs to bring jobs back to America where it is possible to produce quality products that are truly "MADE in the USA.

There was a problem with this... chances are, he filled his tank with gas from Canada. Or South America. It surprises me how many morons actually think we get all of our gas from the middle east. If they actually took the time to do some research (gasp! - I suppose that takes too much brain power, something liberal extremists are severely lacking), they would find that a rather small percentage of our oil comes from the middle east. Most comes from Canada.

Daphne; here are the stats "The main suppliers of oil to the U.S. at this time are; Canada (1.68 million barrels per day), Saudi Arabia (1.49 million barrels per day), Venezuela (1.46 million barrels per day), and Mexico (1.35 million barrels per day)" No Iraq! Now that the United States had JACKED Iraq for it's oil those stats should change. I just wish I was getting a cut.
