Joe Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock
(MADE IN JAPAN) for 6 A.M. 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) and continued his search for a good paying AMERICAN
JOB. At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day,
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.....
