think on this...
Our nation went from mom and pop stores where things were fairly priced and the service was as friendly as grandma's house....
To walmarts and targets where you can buy anything under the sun for what they call "Cheap" and if you have a problem they act like you stole something. then they wonder why everyone tries to get over on them.
frag them. and frag what this country is now, because it is definitely not what it presents itself as by any means.
big business is 100% pure american. THATS what this country was founded on.
big oil, big steel, big coal, big railroad.

if it wasnt for big corporations and businesses, you would not have what you have now, or atleast not without considerabe cost increase...
Wal-Mart and other big box stores are the way they are for a reason...Wal-Mart as an example of one of the most efficient companies worldwide...
yeah they've had some shady business stuff like sweat shops and what have you...most companies have their problems
its a Dog eat Dog world...You want a "Mom and Pop" store...your gonna pay out your pocket for it...
If you havent taken an economics class, you should, with a good professor you will learn a great deal about how economics truly works...
RE: Please pray for our Soldiers - JaySin - 2009.Nov.06 11:41 PM
Economics Class? You mean to fill my head with the knowledge that i can get right outside my door?
Wal-Mart saves you money yes, But did you know they have the #2 Largest Network Server Facility Only 1/4 smaller than the The Pentagon? I mean seriously you dont get any bigger than that. Sears?? Woolworths?? Walmart brings the ruckus and they bring in a hell of lot more than any other store chain in the world when compared by product ratio.
How is that good for us exactly? Walmart gives NOTHING to the communities is sucks power from or the nation as a whole. I for one would much rather give dan and gloria down at The Corner Store my extra $2 for a roll of Asspaper than the greedy money hungry power sucking conglomerates of walmart.

Founded on? are you serious? HS you need a history lesson... back on topic...
joining the military is one of the greatest services you can perform in life! these individuals should be afforded any services needed to get them through life from the time they serve on...
recent events are just an atrocity...
