Good.


WalMart should unionize all it's stores, pay their employees a lot more money,
and stop buying stuff that's made in China.

Of course, they'd probably have to raise their prices accordingly.

Which means the folks in the most need would have to do without.

But then again, the liberals have never really cared about the poor anyway.

Oh well.


I really can't tell you what liberals think, but I DO know that if
Wal-Mart paid enough, their current workers wouldn't be forced to use
state health care plans at taxpayer expense. If WalMart bought
American made goods, like Sam Walton did, they would HELP the American
economy, not enrich the Communist Chinese regime. Maybe Rushbo has
some sort of logic you have swallowed hook, line, and sinker, that
financing the ChiComs is good for America.... you'll have to explain
that in detail, I don't get it.....

Maybe Costco, a worthy competitor who gets my money, is a lot better
business model..... they certainly compensate their employees a LOT
better, don't demand corporate welfare, and cover at least twice as
many of their employees as WalMart with health insurance.

I care about the poor that care about themselves. I don't care about
companies/corporations that milk the American people, economy, and
government of every ounce of wealth and dignity obtainable..... solely
because they justifiably see themselves as a predator and, hey,
everything is fair in business.... right?


Look at the cities in the USA with the highest percent of poor folks. Then look
at the leadership they've had for years and years. You'll get an idea what
liberals, at least those in power, think.

As long as the poor are kept poor and uneducated, they'll keep thinking handouts
will be their saving grace.

BTW, here is an answer to the WalMart/ Costco pay.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_much_does_costco_pay

Yeah, Costco apparently pays more than Walmart for a starting salary. A *lot*
more? No, at least not to that guy.

I do a lot of shopping at Costco also. WalMart gets my business only if it's
something I know they carry. The local WalMart is about a half mile away. The
Costco is about 10-12.

As to 'American made goods', please check out some labels at Costco. I think
most of their American made stuff is in the meat department.

Your president has sent his emissary to infiltrate to the bowels of

for food at Walmart, it brings the government one step closer to
100% control of our lives.

What is your fetish with liberals? Quote some debatable cause and
effect issues with whatever cities you have in mind.

True about Costco's sources.... and I think you'll see I didn't
champion their source of goods. I was impressed with WalMart during
Sam Walton's tenure.... now, they suck and I'm sure he's turning in
his grave.

As for the poor and uneducated, a lot of them have been kept there
through corporate interests and their influence on local governments
and thence, through the education process. There are plenty of cities
in NC that were governed by the local mill or factory through proxy.

When your stereotypes are examined, they are just that, stereotypes.






It's sort of humorous that Herring, of all people, is so "down" on
unionized employees and on public employees. Herring was a careerist in
the military, and therefore was a public employee. His salary and
benefits were paid for by the public, his higher education was paid for
by the public, and his retirement checks come from the public. Further,
his former employer, the US Army, negotiated his wages and benefits for
him, and its management representatives told him what to do and when to
do it. The Army is like one big union, and Herring was a unionized
employee. Further, when he was mustered out of the military, he went to
work for a public school system where the local teachers union helped
determine his wages, hours, and benefits. Mrs. Herring, who must be a
woman of great warmth and patience to stay married to an ass like
Herring, was also a public employee, and in addition to the benefits
derived by being one, bought her health insurance from a labor union
that participates in the FEHBA program.

So, if you are looking for another way to say hypocrite, you could just
say...John Herring.

Here is the root of my fetish with liberals:

City, State, % of People Below the poverty Level

1. Detroit , MI 32.5%

2. Buffalo , NY 29.9%

3. Cincinnati , OH 27.8%

4.. Cleveland , OH 27.0%

5. Miami , FL 26.9%

5. St.. Louis , MO 26.8%

7.. El Paso , TX 26.4%

8. Milwaukee , WI 26.2%

9. Philadelphia , PA 25.1%

10. Newark , NJ 24.2%

Detroit, MI (1st on poverty rate list) hasn't elected a Republican mayor since
1961;

Buffalo, NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954;

Cincinnati , OH (3rd)...since 1984;

Cleveland , OH (4th)...since 1989;

Miami , FL (5th) has never had a Republican mayor;

St. Louis , MO (6th)....since 1949;

El Paso , TX (7th) has never had a Republican mayor;

Milwaukee , WI (8th)...since 1908;

Philadelphia , PA (9th)...since 1952;

Newark , NJ (10th)...since 1907.

You've got to figure out a way to get that anger of yours under control. It's

1. I'm not interested in your "bet."

2. Even if I were, there are so many "ID spoofers" working this bit of
turf, participating in your bet would be absurd, since the "We hate
Harry Spoilers" would be out in full force.

3. I'm amused by your racism and ignorance, not angry about it.

4. One of my minors was sociology. Big whoop.

Yeah, Costco apparently pays more than Walmart for a starting salary. A *lot*
more? No, at least not to that guy.

I do a lot of shopping at Costco also. WalMart gets my business only if it's
something I know they carry. The local WalMart is about a half mile away. The
Costco is about 10-12.

As to 'American made goods', please check out some labels at Costco. I think
most of their American made stuff is in the meat department.

What is your fetish with liberals? Quote some debatable cause and
effect issues with whatever cities you have in mind.

True about Costco's sources.... and I think you'll see I didn't
champion their source of goods. I was impressed with WalMart during
Sam Walton's tenure.... now, they suck and I'm sure he's turning in
his grave.

As for the poor and uneducated, a lot of them have been kept there
through corporate interests and their influence on local governments
and thence, through the education process. There are plenty of cities
in NC that were governed by the local mill or factory through proxy.

When your stereotypes are examined, they are just that, stereotypes.






It's sort of humorous that Herring, of all people, is so "down" on
unionized employees and on public employees. Herring was a careerist in
the military, and therefore was a public employee. His salary and
benefits were paid for by the public, his higher education was paid for
by the public, and his retirement checks come from the public. Further,
his former employer, the US Army, negotiated his wages and benefits for
him, and its management representatives told him what to do and when to
do it. The Army is like one big union, and Herring was a unionized
employee. Further, when he was mustered out of the military, he went to
work for a public school system where the local teachers union helped
determine his wages, hours, and benefits. Mrs. Herring, who must be a
woman of great warmth and patience to stay married to an ass like
Herring, was also a public employee, and in addition to the benefits
derived by being one, bought her health insurance from a labor union
that participates in the FEHBA program.

So, if you are looking for another way to say hypocrite, you could just
say...John Herring.



Harry, how about we make the bet an even $500?

You've got to figure out a way to get that anger of yours under control. It's
affecting your serenity.

I can tell. Along with all my other education was a minor in Psychology.

1. I'm not interested in your "bet."


Gee, one would wonder why.... How about MY bet that I'm neither Kevin or
loogy? You and Don seemed to have backed down on that REAL quickly!

2. Even if I were, there are so many "ID spoofers" working this bit of
turf, participating in your bet would be absurd, since the "We hate
Harry Spoilers" would be out in full force.

3. I'm amused by your racism and ignorance, not angry about it.

4. One of my minors was sociology. Big whoop.
