Something I've noticed about Walmart stores is it seems when they first open a new store it starts out looking well organized and clean and well staffed with quality, helpful employees but as they get older the more disorganized and 'shabby' they start looking and not all but generally speaking likewise the employees. I've watched this happen over time at about four Walmart stores.

I'm flaunting their rules- - - - -walking in the "out" doors, and ignoring the "shop this direction" arrows on the floor. Fun and games!

Look out for the bad ass!! LMAO I hate walmart. HATE it. But...we shop there for grocries since we have pile of kids. Weekly bill went from $280-300 up to $350-$380 in a quick time. We don't buy a lot of beef either. Almost none from there. I'll get my meat from a butcher thank you very much. But we eat 2-3 deer a year. So, we're not big on buying the over priced old walmart meat in a tube. Now, the store here closes at 6pm. In the next 2 years we'll have 3 kids graduate hs. No more walmart after that.
Camp is where you make it.

I live in a huge rural low population county , 7 per sq mile (land mass same as Hawaii), completely devastated by the loss of the timber industry. (thanks NAFTA and USMCA) We have one WM in the county seat, in spite of all the bad you hear, it was kind of a life saver for poor working class families trying to keep food on the table and clothes on the schoolkids. The other option was to drive to Medford OR or Klamath Falls, a loser if you figure the 150 or 200 mile round trip. Is Wal Mart good for us, well yeah, better than the local price gouging sons of bitches that everyone loves to call 'mom and pop stores'.
After all, when your jobs go away thru no fault of your own, it ain't illegal to be poor....yet.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Used to go when I lived near one for the Lindt chocolate bars. $1 or more cheaper per bar than the Safeway. Now, it's a two hour trip to the nearest one, I'm usually too busy when up in that town to drive down to the Wal-mart end, and we now have a Grocery Outlet that sometimes has the chocolate bars even cheaper than Wally's. It was convenient to stop there too, at 10pm or so on the way home from visiting friends, and I lived 30 miles from any other store and they weren't open that late anyway. Not a factor in my life now. For all I know, it may be 30 years before I set foot in one again.  those lindt chocolate bars are available on amazon prime. amazon has a grocery store in some areas, delivered to m y house couple hours after i ordered them online.

If you don't like Walmart.....don't go there.....seems fairly simple to me. Simple guy comes up with a simple answer. Nothing wrong with simple! No one needs Walmart , its about choices, simple!

Would you prefer socialism?
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.

Makes sense LMAO... There are two opposing varieties of free market capitalism. One is globalist and the other is nationalist. Those who oppose globalist notions of free market capitalism, and favor nationalist free market capitalism, tend to be critical of Walmart for undercutting American industry by stocking their shelves with cheap Chinese goods, which are cheap because of the slave labor used to make them. All while our national industry is hamstrung with over regulation in the face of competition from China which is basically operating with none of those restrictions, thus making it nearly impossible for American industry to compete. The solution that nationalist free market capitalism advocates desire is what made America an industrial super power to begin with, i.e., equalizing tariffs.

It conforms to the clientele, it’s self-learning, Walmart isn’t a store, is an organism.

Wal Mart: the prototype company for shipping jobs to China, manufacturing in China and killing small town American business.
But they couldnt do it without its shoppers..... Yep. Not to mention anti-handgun, anti-handgun ammo, and oh yea, no more open carry. Never open carry and never will. But Fugg Walmart. They are the Enemy of Americans.

Would you prefer socialism? Walmart or rather the people behind it, support globalism, which is about the same thing. Do you support slavery? How do you justify Walmart owning or supporting a bunch of Chinese factories which not only put people here out of work but also virtually enslave the locals over there?
