[QUOTE="Gelbvieh 5, post: 847451, member: 8325"] You don't like anyone taking an opposing view do you. I thought 3way made some good points and your response was to call him names. Or at least infer them. I believe that when he asked if you were an employee of the company he was trying to qualify why you would believe their propaganda so readily. I also have worked for a major corporation and do not think for a minute that they donate one penny to a local economy because they are so altrustic. They give money to schools and such to curry favor and grease the wheels. Their corporate executives donate time to habitat in a public fashion. Do you think they would do it if no one ever knew about it, hardly. It is all part of a carefully orchestrated plan to look as good as possible so that folks will think Wal Mart is just a peachy bunch of folks from Arkansas. Not sure why he asked your age but if you are 70 then you should remember an America before Wal Mart where like he said you would have 30 or 40 small business owners who, by virtue of hard work and some luck could build a business and create some local jobs without putting all their eggs in one basket like is what happens with WalMart. What happens if a Wal Mart decides that a store in a rural community is not profitable enough for them, and shuts it down. It's not like one home owned business goes under, the whole local economy collapses. You can stick up for them all you want but if you believe at the end of the day they they give a darn about you then you need to decide if you are smart enough to get past hello. [/QUOTE]
