    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 MEXICO) 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.! .France!!) and turned on his TV(MADE IN INDONESIA), and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in.. AMERICA,,,

    i'm as patriotic as the next guy, but lets be honest, America makes cheap shit. there are very few excptions (for example when it comes to weapons nobody can beat America) but for the most part, other countries make better stuff.

    Depends on what weapons you are talking about. Germany and Belgium make far better small arms than the US. Tanks and other vehicles (i have first had experience with quite a few), the US is far better, along with larger weapons.

    yeah, i'd take my glock over any other handgun, but we are the birthplace of springfield, colt, winchester, S&W etc... no other country can boast as many highly respected gun manufactureres as the US. but you guys are right, we just dont lead in small arm manufacturing

    Damn...its disgusting isn't it?

    My friend is in that same boat! He's a good looking guy with a good education and no criminal background and he can't even find a job right now making minimum wage and it fucking pisses me off when I see Hose A and Hose B without a fucking green card raking in the loot!!...Wheres our priorities :notsure:

    I'm not being racist i'm just saying that no matter what nationality you are...If you don't have a green card or rights for US citizenship than you sure as hell don't deserve a job of any kind here!

    I hate seeing good, honest hard working americans being rubbed out! And lately thats all I see...it's everywhere...the corners, on the news and in our neighborhoods! Somethings gotta give!!!!!!!!


    ...end rant! :eek:
