The fight over WalMarts seems to be a matter of wealthy folks trying to pull down the preferred merchant of the less affluent people. LET THEM SHOP AT TIFFANY'S!
First rule of Liberalism: Never EVER try to influence events that might hurt YOU. Always, ALWAYS try to influence events will hurt those you are supposedly speaking for.
It reminds me of Marie Antoinette when she heard the people of France, and specifically Paris, were starving because there was no bread. She was such an airhead and thought since no bread was available, they could just eat the little pastry cakes and, as we all know, the infamous "let them eat cake" which was really "let them eat the little cakes."
These rich phonies are just like them - THEY wouldn't be caught DEAD in Wal-Mart so they expect the poor to shop where they do - and poor people can't shop on-line - they don't all have PCs or even credit cards or credit for that matter. Ugh! I don't like the way Wal-Marts look - ugly inside AND out - the gray and blue just do me in, especially here in gloomy Cleveland, and I don't like big box stores, but they have their place and purpose. I say Viva Wal-Mart.
