Not only do they get the carts to use but they also have a dozen choice right at the front door parking spaces reserved for them.

Walmart is the epitome of seeing what an assembly of the GOP voter base is all in one place.
Then you can head over to your local OWS hippie camp filled with druggies, public masterbators and perverts to see the Democratic voter base.

You actually pay for insurance? Be honest.

We only have 2 of those carts in my supermarket and all I ever see are old people in them.
Guess I live in a "skinny" area

So anyway, I get home and researched the Walton family briefly, the folks that started Walmart, and it turns out they were staunch Republicans and large Republican campaign contributers. Perhaps no other company has done more to hurt communities and small business in this nation than Walmart! just remember where it got its roots from!
You have a valid point. Those carts were designed for people who are elderly or have real health issues, not big fat slobs who put themselves in that condition.

I don't shop at Walmart, I tried it twice and that was enough.

I don't like their stores or how they treat their employees.

I brought my elderly father(who is slim but walks with a cane), he had to sit on the bench as all the carts were taken.

And who was using them? Fatties in their 30s and 40s.

If somebody is obese because of a medical condition they certainly have my sympathy. However, as two of my medical doctor friends pointed out.. people far often are morelikely to suffer medical conditions AS A RESULT of obesity than the other way around. Half of the people in this nation are going to be diabetic by 2050. Think about it...
Yes. You did.
As I asked, can you tell what medical issues a person might have?
You chose to get indignant rather than think about what you're saying.

How can you know why someone is using one of the carts?
You can't.
But don't let that stop you from making sweeping generalizations, even after being proven wrong.

If that's all you see, are you doing the same?

Again, how can you tell the difference?

What does one have to do with the other?

If a 200 foot walk will kill them I say put the handi spots 300 feet away from the door.
What are your plans? Kill them?
If you’re lucky, some day you’ll be old, too.

I live in one of the skinniest states, in fact the latest CDC health risk survey says Nevada has the lowest % of obese women of any state, Yet anytime I go to Walmart those carts are all being used and driven by the morbidly obese. While I feel sorry for them on some level the fact that our culture approves of so many people letting themselves go to such a degree is not a good sign. America was at it's peak when all the women wanted to look pretty. Yes, I see mostly women using those carts at Walmart. They are mostly middle aged and older white women to be exact. Hispanics are known to have high levels of obesity but the only hot girls I ever see shop at Walmart are Mexicans, plus they dress nicer than the white Walmart shoppers. Also the only ones I see at Walmart not covered in tattoos besides myself are Spanish speaking Hispanics.
