Walmart Versus the Morons
Walmart Versus the Morons... (Good Read)
1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day. 2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute! 3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year. 4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target + Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined. 5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people and is the largest private Employer, and most speak English. 6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the World. 7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger & Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only 15 years. 8. During this same period, 31 supermarket chains sought bankruptcy. 9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world. 10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had 5 Years ago. 11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur At a Wal-Mart store. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)
12. 90% of all Americans live within 15 miles of a Wal-Mart. You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to Fix the economy. This should be read and understood by all Americans Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!! To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature,
It is now official you are ALL corrupt morons: The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is BROKE. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is BROKE.
Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is BROKE.
War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; 1$ trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are BROKE. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is BROKE.
The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has> ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal FAILURE. You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars. AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM?? Folks, keep this circulating. It is very well stated. Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected' and their staff (they never read anything) will clue them in on how Americans feel. =

Re: EASY MONEY
Look @ wal-mart stock, buy some now and it will be worth 2x that in 10yrs. I dont like it cause it kills all the mom-n-pop shops, but it will make you money..... Proven since there inception... People say nothing in life is guaranteed, but this buy is DAMN CLOSE.....

Re: Walmart Versus the Morons
I get your point, but I'm not a fan of walmart. They have shut down many maw and pop small buisnesses. Most of da crap they sell is so cheap because it is made in China, thus puttin many Americans out of work. By shoppin at walmart (I have been guilty of buyin from dem too) we have enriched walmart and givin China much of America's wealth and power all just to save a buck.

Re: Walmart Versus the Morons
I disagree about Wal-Mart killing the Mom and Pops.
In the little town I grew up in a Super WalMart was built. The only stores that went out of business were run by folks not willing to adapt.
The little grocery store finally upgraded and remodelled their store and are doing better than ever.
As far as Wal Mart funding China. What about Cabelas and Bass Pro. Wake up it is all made in China now.
Thank the unions and goverment.

Re: Walmart Versus the Morons
Saveon I totally agree with you on who's choice it is to buy American or Chinese.
My point is why does everyone make such a big deal about Wal-Mart and not every chain store in the country.
