Subject: We’ve got just about enough cheap, Chinese stuff
“We’ve got enough cheap, Chinese stuff!”
I am sorry about this bad sad news for the global-baloney free-trading foreign-aiding corporate-communist and local service and retail economy, and for all of those part-time temporary seasonal associates out there everywhere: My family and I have just about enough cheap, Chinese stuff. It is not that I have lost my Christmas spirit, despite seeing those first artificial Christmas trees, planted inside some stores, about a month before Halloween, if you know what I mean. Nor can I continue to listen to this local radio station that has been playing nonstop Christmas music, and will continue to do so until the start of the New Year, I fear.
Throughout the nation, we have finally reached the point of market saturation, while most folks have even been thinking that it is kind of nifty to relearn about how to get thrifty, as if they have any or many choices. So, people go to thrift shops and dollar stores where they can buy more, while the associates remain sort of poor. Cheap, cheap, cheap, we gotta compete. I mean, why should any of us feel any type of loyalty to one store instead of another? Likewise for our laid-off union sisters and brothers and others who used to earn those old-fashioned blue-collar dollars, and who used to generously donate and spend them and send them?
And why should we feel or remember our former loyalty to famous brand names? Inside most stores, we can still see those famous old American brand names upon products that used to be proudly made in the U.S.A. Yes, things are going to get and be really tough, if and after most of us finally have enough cheap, Chinese stuff…with similar service and retail market saturation throughout the nation.
