    Default Made in???????

    Yes indeed, I wonder, how about you?

    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

    This is spot-on.
    PLEASE, READ THIS TO THE END. IT IS VERY INTERESTING!!!

    Wal-Mart vs. The Morons


    1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day.


    2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!


    3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year.


    4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined.


    5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest private employer, and most speak English.


    6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.


    7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.


    8. During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains sought bankruptcy.


    9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.


    10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago.


    11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)


    12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart.


    You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy.


    This should be read and understood by all Americans… Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!


    To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature


    It is now official that the majority of you are corrupt morons:


    a.. The U.S.Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years
    to get it right and it is broke.


    b.. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it
    right and it is broke.

    c.. Fannie Mae was established in 1938.You have had 71 years to get it right
    and it is broke.


    d.. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right;
    $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the
    poor" and they only want more.


    e.. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years
    to get it right and they are broke.


    f.. Freddie Mac was established in 1970.You have had 39 years to get it right
    and it is broke.


    g.. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence
    on foreign oil.It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion
    a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right
    and it is an abysmal failure.


    You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our
    throats while overspending our tax dollars.


    AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED
    WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM??


    Folks, keep this circulating.It is very well stated. Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected' (they never read anything) and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel.



    AND

    I know what's wrong. We have lost our minds to "Political Correctness" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    Someone please tell me what the HELL's wrong with all the people that run this country!!!!!!
    We're "broke" & can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc.,???????????
    In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey..And now Pakistan ........previous home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS!!!


    Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor do they get any breaks…


    AMERICA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without 'needed' meds, and mentally ill without treatment -etc,etc.


    Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries. Sad isn't it?


    99% of people won't have the guts to forward this.




    I'm one of the 1% -- I Just Did



    When Homocraps can't dispute the facts, they always lean on changing the subject, and personally attack the person that sheds a light on those facts.


    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.

    Winners Never Quit And Quitters Never Win.

    When friends are down, you do what you can to help pick them up.

    My question to you is. Why would corporations want to force the collapse of the economy through government? If they want to continue to make money (corporations) then would they not want the economy to have plenty of income and jobs to have their own success continue?

    Maybe it is the other way around? The government controls the corporations?

    Now if it is World Corporations, then I can see them wanting to take down the United States as a free nation.

    Duh and that's exactly why things are made in foreign countries. Like I said these big corps love cheap labor as a matter of fact the cheaper the better. Kenya had nothing to do with it so, I think you are the one that needs to wake up. you dig it.
