A day in the life of All American NYC

6am:
I woke up, I had a bad dream about illegal aliens. Can't remember much but it had illegal aliens in it.

6:30am:
I turned on the news. The stock futures are pointing low. Serves you Benedict Arnolds right, thanks for shipping our jobs away.

6:40am:
Made myself some coffee. Dumped colombian supremo coffee beans in the trasher. Colombia, well, they all look like Mexicans anyway. Illegal coffee.

6:45am:
Grabbed me a mug. Mixed my coffee. Not colombian supreme by the way. It's French vanilla coffee. Hang on a second, French buggers, I dumped this coffee into the trasher. I'd actually check the bottom of the trasher if it's Made in China, but it's dirty, some other time. Made me some New England hazelnut creme. Wait, this mug is made in China, off you go.

7:00am:
Brushed my teeth. With my index finger. Fricking brush was made in China. F you, Oral B. Meet my trasher, it's nice and dirty. Colgate's made in Wisconsin?? Not sure, but it's alright.

7:15am:
Made me some breakfast. I trashed all bowls. I trashed all spoons. I trashed all forks. I'll use my fingers, heck I can directly mix'em in ziplock?? I dunno, are they made in China too? It says, Taiwan. Wait, Taiwan is much better or else I'll have to drink from my palm. Good milk! At least the cows are reared in New York.

7:30am:
I showered. Don't know where soap is made. But hopefully not China.

7:50am:
I can't wear these clothes. My shirt says India. Pants say Bangladesh. I can't go out naked, NYPD will arrest me.

8:00am:
Logged into C/D to vent. Created 10 threads in illegal immigration. Posting in Politics board right now

OP, sorry bro, couldn't resist LMAO

Nobody said he is pathetic. You did.

Generally, I will actually agree with a lot of things he says. But globalization's how the cookie crumbles.

We have 11 carriers.....................


Now we need a politician who has the guts to reverse the trade policies of Bill Clinton (NAFTA and China most favored nation trade status). Obama is not that man.

I do not think any politician can reverse our trade agreements because doing so would damage the financires that are actually controlling our economy and politics.

China has been making Exclusive Economic Zone claims to international waters off of its coastline and has been in diplomatic conflict with nearly every one of its neighbors, including Japan, concerning the control of these areas.

The reason for China's claim, aside from sheer nationalism, is that there's estimated to be large quantities of oil and natural gas under the seabeds of these areas.

China's not alone in making such disputed claims. But China may be developing its naval power to enforce such claims.

We'll they'd better do so very quickly before their economy implodes thanks to the Jimmy Carter era levels of inflation which are ravaging their economy, as well as millions of rebellious citizens who are learning the truth about that train crash thanks to social media outlets, and aren't buying the woeful government 'spin' that even James Carville couldn't fix!!!!
