[Oe List ...] a question

Thu Dec 30 16:53:22 CST 2010

Bill, in a recent visit to Heihe across the Amur that divides Manchuria China from Siberia Russia, there is a Russkye street that sells nothing but Cyrillic-labeled goods.  The Chinese businessman I was with said that all of them, including the Kenyan Koffee was manufactured in China with another country's label!

The CNMI of Tom Delay and Abramoff manufactured clothes for the boutique shops labeled "Made in USA" until workers in the US complained because the CNMI was exempted from minimum wage, and tariffs.  Factories were 90% imported Chinese workers, and production began somewhere in China with sometimes just the label, a collar, lapel, or a button sewn on island, just so it can be labeled as manufactured here.

Your made in China household has real labels.  Good for you.

Oh, the Chinese vodka (bei jou) beats the ones from North Korea manufactured for the Russian market.

Your car is Japanese. Your pizza is Italian.             Your beer is German. Your wine
is Spanish. Your democracy is             Greek. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your tea is
Chinese. Your watch             is Swiss. Your fashion is French. Your shirt is Indian. 
Your             shoes are Thai. Your radio is Korean. Your vodka is Russian...And             then
you complain that your neighbor is ...an immigrant. Pull             yourself together! 
Copy if you are against             racism.
