The difference being that I buy necessities there.....you probably by the newest, latest flat screen.....then buy chips and soda with your food stamps.
This is in fact what I witnessed there yesterday. A couple had a 60" TV, and then paid for their "groceries" with their "card".
That is how many welfare cheats do it.. the man works, the women is on welfare, the guys paycheck buys the big ticket items and the woman gets free housing, food and medical care.. they live good off the government.

They stay unmarried.
We just had an 18 year old HS senior come to school bragging that his girlfriend is now old enough to get on the government programs and he was moving in with her and his son.
The government has done an excellent job of removing the "stigma" of being on government programs.
You've got high school kids that know the ropes and loopholes in our programs.

In some cases Walmart is able to contract for even more substandard products with those same "brand names" at other stores.
Buying a name brand at Walmart for cheaper does not necessarily mean you are getting the same product sold somewhere else for more.
I visited a factory in China 8 years ago. They didn't connect all the wires on the toasters they were delivering to Wal-Mart. The Macy's toasters were hand polished and a monk blew incense over them.
Well maybe if many of the knuckle dragging cusomer got it and understood that those low prices are a by product of shipping manufacturing to China and demanded "Made in The USA" instead, jobs would return and they would be gainfully and competitively employed and paid at a wage that is not forced to compete with China. These fools are too dense to get such a simple concept as they gleefully decry how Walmart has given them access to cheaper prices...now they cannot even afford those. The irony would be hilarious if it were not so pathetic.
It's not a worthless argument. The truth is, those who mind our business have no idea who is using food stamps.
I don't even know how you can tell. I have literally never noticed it. And I don't care but you can see the anger and resentment that so many on this forum live with on a daily basis. I think it's sad.
I shop at Walmart, shop at Safeway, shop at City Market. I'm far from broke, Walmart is convenient. I don't get these so called elite people who refuse, or rather refuse to admit, they shop at Walmart. What's the big deal?
I just came from Wal-Mart, I like their store brand sausage patties, makes for a good breakfast with my bagels I get from Wegman's

I guess you didn't know that Walmart has such clout they can ask the manufacturer to make changes to save them money so they can offer the product cheaper than the competition.
