Have any of you heard that WM is closing five stores in the southwest U.S. for six months because of plumbing problems? It has been reported that last night, each of these stores made this announcement and laid off up to 500 employees with no notice and said that each employee would be given 60 days' worth of severance pay and benefits, with the opportunity of transferring to another. (In other words, five stores with the exact same problem and the exact same estimate of the time to fix the problem made the announcements at the exact same time.)
To me, this would sound weird all by itself, but then I came across opinions tying these closings to "Jade Helm", an upcoming two-month military exercise to be held July 15 - September 15, 2015 to practice "unconventional warfare" in the southwest.
Now, I know City-Data is not a "conspiracy theory" site, and that the great majority of such theories and alarms have proven to be completely bogus, but I would like to read your thoughts and opinions of the above.
I cannot embed a link, but if anyone else can do so without violating any copyright laws, that would be great. (You can easily find info by Googling "Walmart Closings 2015" and "Jade Helm".
We have seen video of military exercises in Florida where they come in at 3:00am, round up 'dissidents' and put them in the white vans to be driven to the 're-education centers'.

I would think the stores shutting down had faulty plumbing materials coming from the same suppliers, or the plumbing was installed by the same crew who did subpar work.

People, this is real. It's happening.
Why is it real this time when the previous dozens of "FEMA camp" claims over the last couple decades have all been proven lies?
There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking' their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
What a field day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly saying, "hooray for our side"
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the men come and take you away
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Now, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
We better stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
