Joe Citizen started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN) for 6 a.m.
While his coffee pot (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 a breakfast in his electric skillet (MADE IN INDIA), he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO) to see how much he could afford to spend that week.
After looking at his watch (MADE IN TAIWAN), he turned off 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 started wondering why he can't find a good paying job in AMERICA. NOW HE'S HOPING HE CAN GET HELP FROM A PRESIDENT MADE IN KENYA !!!

Has anyone checked out Furit of the loom in the past five years or Campbells pork and beans? All made cheaper to squeeze another penny out for the company. What happened to "Made in America" meaning a quality product?

Fruit of the loom used to be made in Campbellsville Ky, about 20 miles from me. They completely closed the plant, making a couple thousand unemployed workers to move ALL production from that plant to mexico.
