Buying Chinese made products and selling bonds to the Chinese government are not the same thing. You know that right?

I cannot stand Wal-Mart and slowly have gotten my family/friends to shop elsewhere even if it costs more.

I won't shop at Walmart because I don't like the way they treat their employees. Compare them to Costco (where people make decent wages) and it's just not worth it.

Hardly, Bill Clinton did it with the EPA. He got richer than anyone can imagine, but he doesn't say it, since he could still be tried for treason.
He sold the biggest lie in history and the sheep bought it.

Tell me what is of any value, real value you can buy in any walmart? Real value holds it's value and perhaps increases in value. What at wal mart does that?
