The Chinese Tourist

A Chinese man comes to Los Angeles for a holiday.
He arrives at LAX and gets a cab to take him to his hotel.
On the way he sees a few buses, and he says to the taxi driver:
"The buses here are so noisy and really slow...
In China the buses are very fast!" The taxi driver says nothing.
Later the Chinese tourist sees a marina with a few boats sailing by.
He comments again to the driver: "The boats here are so slow...
in China the boats are very fast!"
The driver kept silent and drove. When they get to the hotel, the Chinese
tourist gets out of the taxi and asks for the meter reading.
The driver calmly tells him the price, and the man is startled.
"Are you kidding?" he yells, "Your buses are so slow, the boats are so slow.
If everything else here is so slow then how come the meter of your taxi is so fast?!?"
The driver gives him a smile and says: "It's made in China."
