Ponderings of a Laid Off Union Worker

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   <----- 

*********************************
Dear John,
 
If your union didn't support politicians that think businesses are evil and regulate and tax them accordingly, you and 15% of your fellow Americans would be working now !
