Blame WM and MCD? No way...blame the morons who put themselves in a position for a McJob life. Life is full of choices. Should we play the blame WM and MCD if people make the wrong choices in life?

Last time I checked this was still the "land of opportunity". If you let the "opportunity" pass you by, that's your own fault. And yes, I will have fries with that!

I agree with you 100% but the point I am trying to make is that when you have these kind of companies that are thriving in an economy like this, chances are the economy is not going to improve any time soon and in fact this is telling me things will get much worse for the years to come.

You got that right...
You have to keep people poor, angry, and dependent on you to get reelected.

Ok people, I didn't start this thread to turn into this. If don't like Wallyworld and McDonalds, don't go there and don't respond to this thread period!!

As for me, I enjoy WW and the money it saves me so I can spend it at Southpark Mall.

LOL, I didn't know Wally World was supposed to mean Wal Mart. I really thought this was some kind of amusement park or something.

I went to the Walmart store opening on N Tryon last month.......I should have known better. Every car-park space was filled, then people had just created their own spots on the grass or wherever, plus traffic was 20-30 cars deep back out onto Tryon. No need to rush over there tomorrow......they'll have the same product selection next week.

There is just a little bit of hope that the Concord WalMart will hold out from becoming a crap hole like a lot of others do.
didn't know that it opened....
