Condemn WalMart as uncaring, greedy capitalist employee oppressors and then berate them for closing operations and putting employees out of work simply because they try to keep their operations profitable. Fie on them!

Somebody ping Walmart! Bernie Sanders has the answer. Pay their employees a "living wage".

I thought Obama said the economy was booming. Maybe they see something he doesn’t.

IMO this is a serious red flag about the state of the economy. Noticed gas at one station was down to $1.49 yesterday. Something is coming...
To: kristinn
And THAT is how you pay for giving everybody an across the board pay raise!

I think this is a HUGE red flag.
Btw, market tanking big this morning because of Oil. Gold up big.
Saudis are trying to bring the oil companies to their knees.
You may like the low price of gas but that has huge ramifications for the US economy - in a bad way.

> The world's largest retailer also will open as many as 405 stores globally in the coming fiscal year, as it shifts its focus toward Supercenters and Neighborhood Markets in profitable locations.
I take it this means they won't be opening stores in New Orleans, Baltimore, or Ferguson?
To: kristinn
Walmart is going the way of Woolworth, Sears & Kmart before it. I expect another retailer will someday overtake it as #1.

Companies open and close locations all the time. No big deal.
To: Gaffer
Liberals thing Walmart is in business to provide jobs, not to make a profit for their shareholders.

“Something is coming...”
Heard on Fox business that there are still 14 million mortgages underwater. Over one trillion in auto loan debt, spending down in Dec. Yep, she could blow, if it has to happen I want it to happen sooner than later. Cement that POS Obamas legacy.
