      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
      That is a good one Clayton. Did you write that yourself? Pat yourself on the back.

        Lets face it. Only way to fix this is to either raise the standard of living in other countries or to ban all imports.

        Or implement tariffs so high transportation costs make importing impractical giving local merchants a chance.


        If it wasnt china it would be mexico, haiti, d.r., africa etc. What did china do that was so bad?

        It was japan that bombed us, yet no one talks of them.

          But didnt obama just hire a walmart exec? And applauded whirlpool for moving to mexico. Even awarded them stimulus money. Doesnt sound like he cares.

          Israel runs the republicans. They dont care either.

            What the heck? All companies pass the cost on to the customers, otherwise they'd go broke and wouldn't be companies, now would they... And they wouldn't be providing jobs either.... You guys ever think about what your typing?

If we have more people making 35,000 to lets say 45, or 50,000 a year just think what that could do for economy. Yes they would have extra money to spend therefore more demand for goods and services.
                A man or a woman should be paid what their worth, not what the government dictates. Ya know, I don't think I ever made over 55 grand a year in my entire life. And I live dam good and I live in one of the most expensive county's in Calif. It's not the money you make, its what you do with it.

                  Who said anything about the government. We are talking about private companies here. Yes you are right it does have a lot to do with what you do with your money but, you have to make it first. What was your combine income between you and your wife was it 55,000?

                    Yes you are correct and I think people understand that Mud. All I was doing was pointing that out.

                                Fixing the government is the top priority before any true reforms can take place.
