[quote:Gasman28110:MV8xOTI4NDA2XzMyMjk1Njg0XzcyMThGMUJC] FOR GOD'S SAKE. You people are some of the most stupid SOB's on planet earth. For those of us that are old enough to remember, back in the good old days, Sam Walton had a "made in America" policy. We the people were to fucking cheap to buy the products and with Billy Bob Clinton giving China the "most favored nation" treatment along with God knows what else, most of the manufacturing of small goods and textiles moved over seas. SOOOOOO where the hell is Wally World supposed to buy thier stock from? Second off, how many times has your sorry ass been to Wal Mart this week? The simple FACT of the matter is; Wal Mart sells what we the people want at a price that most people can afford. They have a store on every corner so most of the population can be there i 15 min. or less. Hell I live in nowhere NC and have 3 stores in less than 15 min. Now I buy at mom and pop stores when I can and often pay more when I do but hey it's MY CHOICE. YOU have the same choice. Quit bitching because 1 man started a buisness and has done qiute well and upon his death his heirs are doing quite well. Quit bitching and get a job or better yet make a better mouse trap. Te world will beat a path to your door. [/quote]
Original Message
The recession has devastated the finances of many Americans, but it has been very good to the Walton family. Since 2007, Walmart stores have been flooded with millions of folks who've lost their shirts in the housing bust, stock market crash, and stalled job market—people who can no longer afford to buy anything that isn't made in China and sold by someone making close to minimum wage.
