See, Saw, Marjorie Daw

See, saw, US jobs went offshore,
Margie shall have no task master.
She shall get not a penny in pay,
'Cause Chinese work so much faster.

Flim, flam, George don't give a damn,
That Jimmy can't work under NAFTA.
He cannot say why his job went away,
Big Business lived happily ever after.

William's Whimsical Words:

Aside from Ken Lay, how many of President Bush's wealthy cronies do you suppose have had their jobs outsourced?
