Made In China
Made in China
By Elton Camp
No matter how I shop and hard I try,
“Made in China” is on nearly all I buy
I’d be willing to pay a good bit more
For goods made here as it was before
No disrespect for the Chinese do I mean
That local jobs vanish I’ve clearly seen
And money that is sent to a distant shore
Likely will not be seen around here more
Chinese work under conditions I deplore
That I support it by my purchases, I abhor
Yet, no matter how much this I do mind,
I have to buy whatever it is that I can find
