Whoa, there, pal! The only way to avoid getting old is to die young!
Today's 80 is yesterday's 90......trending Seniors are getting younger. While 50 something's are acting older. Looking older, feeling older......Could it be they are killing themselves trying to crawl their way to retirement? I don't think a lot of them will make it to 75.
Wal-Mart sells the same items usually at lower prices than the competition. The stupid people are those who do not shop at Wal-Mart. Of course they tend to be elitist liberals who think they are better than the common man who shops at Wal-Mart.
"The anointed do not simply happen to have a disdain for the public. Such disdain is an integral part of their vision, for the central feature of that vision is preemption of the decisions of others.” — P. 123-124 Thomas Sowell "The Vision of the Anointed".
You can see that disdain clearly expressed by our elitist liberal friends on this thread.
Please tell me why a can of Libby's Green Beans is of lower quality simply because it is sold at Wal-Mart.
What if I don't want anything for sale at Walmart in the first place? Apparently I'm some kind of chump for not buying what is fed to me by Walmart. Your disdain for people that don't want what's for sale in big box retail is astonishing.
"People ask, 'How can it be bad for things to come into the U.S. cheaply? How can it be bad to have a bargain at Wal-Mart?' Sure, it's held inflation down, and it's great to have bargains," says Dobbins. "But you can't buy anything if you're not employed. We are shopping ourselves out of jobs."
It could be like back in the days when where you lived was a "company Town" , Sawmill town , coal Town , everything owned by the place you were forced to work. They even had their own form of money , ....Walmart has already been talking about that , issuing " Walmart Bucks ".They want to create WallMart Bank , not sure where that is right now. Then there is insurance, now health care talk . If people like to be apart of one Company run economy and are happy with that , well so be it I guess ? They have already started down this road , with propaganda sheets handed out about how the workers can live on a lower income .
