When the "movie" ends up on DVD, even money says you'll find it on Walmart shelves.

The only problem I've ever had with Walmart was getting away from the principles of their founder, Made in the USA. This globalization trend has made it almost impossible for any company to sell quality goods at a reasonable price.

My first piece of advice to Wal*Mart is to stop worrying about the movie and start worrying about the service. Wal*Mart is going the way of K Mart, everyone is tired of waiting in line, never enough registers open, not one clerk available to find anything, they are all chatting and blocking the aisles. There are other stores, and slightly higher prices are worth the experience.

Speak that we may 'know' you.

"the humor, craft, or story sense that made Moore’s film so engaging."

We are grateful for your self-revealing comments. Now go on to write your Wal Mart Valentine or whatever. We'll hang onto your every utterance.

NOT!

Just saw a piece about Kennedy's dog and pony show on O'Reilly. Teddy is standing in front an easel with ten commandments I guess he wants Wal*Mart to follow. If you ever needed proof of the left's knowledge of the Bible, this is it. The poster lists the ten commandments starting each one with the phrase "Though shalt not...".

If Teddy had ever opened a Bible, he would know that thou is not spelled t-h-o-u-g-h ;-)

It’s a response to the great social disrupter of our time—the emergence of a friction-free global economy.

Ahhh, but that's the problem, isn't it? Who says it's friction-free? Who says, for example, that the Chinese are inevitably cuddly and nice, rather than a likely military rival?

"Friction free" is probably not accurate. As such, the rest of Mr. Colvin's argument crumbles.

What I hate is this - true story:
Went to the Wal Mart 13 miles away bought a toy for Christmas at $10.87, they only had 2.
So I went to the Wal Mart 9 miles away, same day, bought 3 more for $ 9.73.
Took the receipts with me next time I went to the first Wal Mart. Went to "customer service" desk. Asked why did one sell the same item one the same day for $1.14 cheaper.
Was told "The other store was in an area with more competition, so they have to be cheaper. This store doesn't have any competition in the area so we can charge more."
I told them I would be shopping the competition in the other area from now on. Her comment was "So".
