I was just shopping in Walmart yesterday ... I had to wait in line for my junk .... very disappointing.
I was buying baby powder .... I am sure other stores would have had much higher quality stuff ..... oh yea ..... it is all the same brands.

I also liked the people in line.
I ran into Dawn's mother-in-law Carrie. I would never call her a sheeple. :angel1:

Try and read the documentrys on Wal-Mart from PBS.org look at there videos and you'll see what Wal-Mart has done to the great country of ours. The government is at fault and the Republican party as well for taking donations and letting Wal-Mart being powerful.

Surely it is not just the GOP.  Wal-Mart is big in AR and Hillary used to have partial control over the company.

How about looking up the funds that Wal-Mart gave to the GOP. Compared to the DEM's. Wal-Mart is a Neo-Con concentration camp.

And you could have walked around the corner from your place and bought the same thing from the Mom & Pop drug store and supported a local business.

Only on land it sit's on. The bottom line is the profits goes down south and do not stay here. Like a local Mom & Pop shop does.

Hey don't you want people to support your business? Well I think you see my point.

Kat Kanning

Our biggest support has come from CA.  Does that mean we're bad people now?

Lloyd Danforth

All of the employees spend their money locally and everyone in the area enjoys the low prices and one stop shopping.  Again, if you take any, alleged government assistance to Wallmart, out of the equation, it is a 'free market' no-brainer.

I'm sure you see my point.

I see your point and I feel bad for there emplyees. There getting the shaft and there forsed to sell low quality junk. And that is a no-brainer. ::) ::)

Wal-Mart the Neo-Con concentration camp.

So if you like to see profits go to a big ass corporation then shop there. But as a small business owner my self I support other small businesses and that is the right thing to do.

www.jib-jab.com there is a good clip there about Wal-Mart


The bottom line is Wal-Mart profits does not stay in Keene or anywhere's else.

Most of it goes to the employees and stock holders.  If you have a large cap mutual fund, you likely get some of the profit  ;D  I know I do  ;)

No one is forced to work at Walmart  ::)  It's not a slave labor camp.  People work there because it is better than their alternatives.  Do you want to deny them that choice?  I've asked many employees there, and they say they like working there.
