Or he is simply lying again.

Harry doesn't like walmart because the democrats told him they were
bad. The reality is they set the standard for all of these big box
stores and the difference between all of them is minuscule.

They act like "low end retail" or fast food is supposed to be a
career. It is, at best, a job you get until you learn enough to have a
career or what you do after you retire, just to get out of the house.

If you want a career in retail, you get a job on commission. Then you
can actually make some money if you are good at it. If you are not,
the market speaks.

My disdain for Walmart has nothing to do with "Democrats," and
everything to do with decades of reading about the chain thumbing its
nose at wage-hour laws, food safety regulations, exploitation of
workers, China trade, indirect subsidies, and the rest of the shopping
list. Perhaps these horrors aren't covered by the right-wing media that
has your attention.

I don't see that much difference between walmart and target or home
depot. The wage gap is pennies.
IBM came out in the 90s and said they wanted to learn lessons from
walmart and so did most US corporations.
Prior to that, sony "quality" was the goal and where is sony now?
They are still scratching out a living but their quality has fallen
off to "market driven" too and they are groveling down in the mud with
Visio, Samsung and Phillips.

BTW which company is NOT peddling chinese goods?
It is certainly not your hero Tim Cook.

Krause tends to evade that question. Perhaps we're not entitled to his response.

At 6'3" Tim Cook is probably tall enough to earn Krause's admiration.
Remember when Krause was 6'4 and 3/4" inches tall, how he mocked shorter
people. Now, at barely 6' even, due to his progressive osteopenia, he
never mentions stature anymore.
