WalMart Rules the World and We Pay For It

WalMart is an evil, oportunistic business that gouges its employess and gouges the US government. When WalMart moves into town, there is an increase in the use of welfare programs (food stampes, EBT cards, etc) because most workers at WalMart will qualify for these programs while employed at WalMart.

Is this insane? Yes. WalMart pays substandard wages and is the model businesses across the nation would like to use. We need to stop this idiocy. It is also being seen with the mindset of businesses wanting to slash wages and benefits for workers (look at Delphi Corporation).

When will people understand that good, sound wages are the most important economic indicators of a country doing right for its people. I am sure we would all love to have the economic reality of Mexico or China, right? Well, if we as a society do not take back control from the evil, money-grubbing, business idiots that do not give a rat's ass about society, we will be in the same economic boat as China and Mexico all too quickly.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
