Wal-Mart/Sam's Club
Today someone told me that Sam's Clubs don't have the same labor problems that Wal-Mart has.

1. I don't believe that.
They're the same damn company deep down inside, why would it be any different?

2. Huh?
Maybe they have the same labor problems, but they package it in bulk.

3. LMAO...
Or maybe they lost their membership card and their labor problems along with it.

4. I'll never set foot ..............
in either again. Just yesterday I trasferred my prescriptions to Walgreen's. Not only do I completely disagree with Wallyworlds labor practices, the Pharmacist at our local Wallyworld is a pompous, condescending prick. I'll drive 10 miles out of my way so as not to give one more penny of my money to those slavemasters.

5. Far Fewer Employees Too
And I hate the business practices of Wal-Mart.

One opened up in my Aunt's small town of maybe 2500 people, lasted long enough to drive the other local merchants into the ground and then relocated 30 miles away leaving a black economic hole where a town used to trade.

To this day, the only thing left are gas stations and fast food joints.
