Marianas

Visitors Authority

An interesting place...did you know that articles of clothing manufactured here get to display a "Made in the USA" tag? So that new shirt you bought, the one with a tag that made you feel good? Guess what...it was probably made right here. And the workers who made it? Were paid very little for their labor. This is why Mr. DeLay made a tour of these islands as a guest of Mr. Abramoff...and why Mr. DeLay promoted a bill that would allow manufacturers here to avoid any regulations that might hurt the bottom line.

That seems to be the story I have heard...true? I don't know, but it looks like the happy workers can go windsurfing and then lay on the beach after a pleasant day in the factory.
