Won't they be surprised when they discover there ain't no goose laying golden eggs....much less toasters and rice cookers.

Coming soon to a Macy’s/Nordstrom’s near YOU, if we can’t get rid of the Socialists.

Hopey-Changey, suckas.

Well it might be coming to a Macy’s/Nordstrom’s near you anyway, if we cannot bring back American manufacturing.

Just saying.

What I really don’t get is the folks gloating over the stupid socialists, while they themselves are on the slide to death camps.

“Now the commies are getting what they want! That’ll teach them!!”

And people wonder why the Jews queued up for the trains.

If our government decides to shut down all imports we won’t have to worry about fighting over anything on the shelves because they will be bare. Wonder if people have really thought about this possibility when the issue of sending all our U.S. grown chickens to China for processing came up.

And when the shelves are empty they’ll have to seize the wholesalers, and then the factories, and then the material suppliers, and the mills, and then the mines and loggers.

They won’t bother.

Electronics are now joining everything else that will only be found on the black market. Or they’ll be like 50’s cars in Cuba, because no new products will be coming in.

toasters and rice cookers?

“I want a Sony plasma television for the house,” said Amanda Lisboa, 34, a business administrator, who had waited seven hours already outside one Caracas store. “It’s going to be so cheap!”
