” John 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 )
filled it with GAS
(from Saudi Arabia )
to the radio
(MADE IN INDIA )
he got in his car
(MADE IN GERMANY )
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 .”
I think we know what the point of this story is. Competition is good, but it needs to include American competition. Lets get our act together.
