Whatza matta - don't we make anything here anymore? Fleese Traders will continue to tell us again how exporting our factories and jobs is good for America [read their pockebooks].

I hope that's not all of this story? Japan already has emergency supplies and equipment warehoused in Florida that it has offered to the U.S.

Well once upon a time, the usa used to make this kinda stuff here, free traders refer to this kinda stuff a buggle whips and will tell we are much better off not making anything here any more. Here we have an example of what happens when you export your ability to provide for yourself. You have to go begging to the rest of the world because you are unable to provide for yourself. Thanks free traders for turning the usa into a beggar nation, thanks alot.

[Sometimes A River]

Yeah, what is this....begging for welfare from other coutnries?

Sad, sad.

Disgusting even.

[jpsb]

Usa reduced to begging for help, no longer able to product needed goods.
