Obama Jobs: Smoke and Mirrors Revealed

[CitadelGrad]

More than 20% of US households receive at least 75% of household income from the government. That isn't Wal-Mart's fault.

No that isn't Wal-Marts fault...
Nothing is Wal-Marts "fault" they are simply running their business like any public company should in the environment that we have created for them...An environment where corporations have more rights than citizens an environment where corporations have more influence of political structures than citizens and effect more change than citizens...

We have surrendered our country over willingly to corporations - and they have done as any entity would do...
some folks think thats great some folks think thats bad...
who cares - i sure don't

It's not that confusing and it's completely observable and measurable

I'm not sure that anyone who's aware of corporatism thinks it's great.

Apathetic mother fucker!

How did this thread go from smoke and mirrors to a losely translated version of that Wal-Mart South Park episode?

Here I'll help you out:
a) There are approximately 4,300 Wal-Mart's in America
b) They employ over 12 million Americans
c) They control a HUGE part of the U.S. Economy
D) They out source 97% of their goods from China
e) A HUGE percentage of their employees are subsidized by Federal Programs

America's largest employer perpetuates the Welfare state.... (Period)

Thanks for the clarification.

Kalmness
you know (as well as I) that at some point you have to look in the mirror and ask yourself a few questions:

1) What was my role in this (I've been sucking corporate tit since how long I can't even remember)
2) How many days do I have left here - how best can I spend my second half (angry about something I can't change)
3) All is what we make it... who knows this might ultimately turn out to be fantastic for future generations

Too many good things in my life for me to get too worked up...
BUT..!!! I will lay it out there (my anti-corporate heart)
and let others decide for themselves what they see and how they feel
