There is a tendency among some Goans to look at America with rose tinted glasses. This little joke among one of the forwards I received will put things in the proper prespective. Poor Americans John Smith started the day early. having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN ) for 6 am. While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA) Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 09:40:38 -0800 (PST) From: Samir Kelekar <[email protected]> > and turned on his TV > (MADE IN INDONESIA), > and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in AMERICA And finally came on Goanet, and posted how great America is! We all know what the real name of John Smith is. :-) Date: Thu, 14 Jan 2010 00:57:42 +0530 From: "floriano" <[email protected]> And instead of growing ulcers, he relaxed cause he had a good goan friend who had taught him the trick of being SUCEGAD:) Mario responds: This is so hilarious. Americans are buying all this stuff and Tony, Samir and Floriano have decided in their infinite lack of perspicacity that it is AMERICANS who can't find a good paying job in America and are therefore poor! LOL! Try selling all that stuff to poor people:-)) Samir forgot to add IT services from India to the list. Perhaps, affluent Karnatakan that he is, he is providing his services to those poor Americans for free:-)) Has any of these eminent economic analysts stopped to think where would these countries be without these purchases by Americans? This is precisely the beauty of America - we can buy stuff from anywhere we choose to:-)) And look what happens to China when the US economy slows down: http://www.eeo.com.cn/ens/Industry/2009/09/10/150693.shtml
