What ruined your retirement?

From a good friend and excellent lyrical poet I know well. blessin's

Joe Smith  started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN)  for 6am. 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 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.....

Keep  this circulating to all thinking, flag waving Americans.
