[QUOTE="cmjust0, post: 315251, member: 2882"] So, when was the last time you actually picked something up at Wal-Mart, turned it around, and made the effort to look and see where it was made? I do, and I'd hazard a guess that 75% or better of what they sell is cheapo chinese JUNK nowadays.. Did you also realize that Wal-Mart actually helps their employees wade through all the red tape in order to receive government benefits? Yep.. Sounds really "compassionate" until you call it what it really is, which is Wal-Mart bleeding the federal government -- a.k.a., the taxpayers, a.k.a., YOU and ME -- to help cover their payroll costs so they can sell cheaper and/or make more profit.. Wal-Mart employees are some of the most prominent users of government healthcare, foodstamps, and other forms of social welfare -- because Wal-Mart pushes them in that direction so they'll not complain about having no benefits.. Then Wal-Mart helps them figure out how to get enrolled.. From a business standpoint, it's brilliant.. From a social standpoint, it's nothing short of theft. Still proud to shop at WIC-Mart? Still think it's a wholesome American company offering their customers a lot of bang for their buck, as so many WIC-Mart supporters seem to believe?? If so, then the next time you go through the checkout line, see if you can calculate the real cost of your shopping trip by adding in your share of the foodstamps, healthcare, and EITC being utilized by the person who just scanned all the cheap, Chinese made CRAP in your buggy, as well as the assistance going to all the Americans who [i]used[/i] to make the stuff you just bought, and add that to the total bill.. I've got a feeling that you won't come out ahead.. :roll: [/QUOTE]
