Some homo’s wanted them to make a cake for their wedding?
My guess it’s a good way to get rid of Union trash that has been causing problems. Good on them!
There is some discussion that these stores were ones where the employees were protesting for higher wages.
“There is a plumbing problem. I flushed my job down the toilet. Turns out the Democrat Party doesn’t have any Liquid Plumber.”
“All workers will receive paid leave for two months. After that, full-time workers could become eligible for severance”
I’d say they should be grateful, walmart coulda said “heres your 2 weeks pay, adios”. And, remember obama implimented the 99 weeks of unemployment.
The Walmart in Kenneth City off the Pinellas Trail was closed about a year ago - I thought the store just wasn’t making enough money, but now I don’t know ...
It’s to retro-fit them to be the prototypes for the new cashless society that’s coming.
The wonderful thing is that, Walmart can do whatever they want with their stores for any reason.... and the don’t really owe anyone an explanation.

I thought liberals hated Walmart. Why are they so concerned? You’d think they’d be saying, “Good! I hope they stay closed.”
But no. Instead they are speculating that Walmart refuses to be bullied. Walmart has closed stores when pressure mounted for workers to unionize. They just get rid of all the employees. Walmart knows it business model and its mission. Their success is total focus on low prices for every consumer. They will not deviate on anything that compromises that, ever.
Love them or hate them, you will respect their business acumen. Or you are a business fool.
Underperforming stores near ghettos perhaps?
There is a discussion in the comments section that these properties are going to be used by FEMA to house immigrant children.
Because they can?
Let the employees go and start their own mega retail center.
Call it ObamaMart.
Some interesting, if wacky, theories in comments section.

We live in wacky times. A decade ago who would have thought that the country would be in the lawless state it is today? We are ruled by an emperor who wields a pen and a phone.
According to wiki walmart employd 2.2 million in 2014. So if my calculations are correct 2200 is 1 tenth of one percent?
I am sorry for the workers and layoffs.
Still, Walmart has 5,000 stores across the US and Puerto Rico.
It puts things a bit in perspective.
Wow! AllButNews actually did some *investigative* reporting. I'm shocked!
Maybe they can go find 0bie's transcripts, now.
Closed for a plumbing problem must the the Walmart equivalent of a restaurant’s “closed for remodeling”.
