AIN'T IT THE TRUTH!!?"

Joe Smith started the day early having set his
alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN) for 6am.
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 ),
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 ... AMERICA ......

Oh this is funny but sad too!
I blame Wal-Mart and unions mostly...(even though I used to be all gung ho on unions, but they got a bit out of control I think).
Americans want to buy goods for less, but "unskilled" labor unions demand outrageous salaries.
I hate to sound so conservative, but it's true, I think.
It really does worry me- we will only be a service economy...I don't have any answers...do you?
