Someone put a "Boycott Mexico" sign up in my neighborhood |
|
Since it was written on the back of one of the pesky "work at home" or " sell you house" signs that are illegal. I didn't feel bad swiping it. I live in a diverse neighborhood of hard working people. They put this sign right in front of a church that offers services in Spanish.

4. And ask them what 'American' car they are driving - many are made |
|
with parts assembled south of the border. And what are they wearing? Damn few workers sewing in the US anymore.
Might wanna ask them what's on the dinner table too. Farm labor in the US aside, lots of our food actually comes from other nations. When the junta took over, about 40% of the food in our stores was from other nations. One of the first things passed and signed was the repeal of the requirement that foods be labeled with the country of origin. Who knows what percentage of our food comes from other nations now, or which nations.
If ya'll think it's a pain having multi-national cartels ruling your gas tanks, think about the fun of them ruling your bellies!

6. If you find out who, ask if they own any DVDs. |
|
Amongst other things, DVDs are fabricated and packaged in Mexico.
