This depressing animated map shows Walmart taking over America

Yep...or employee owned companies.

Do you even know the basics of an ESOP let alone the ultimate objective? Have you ever even read the acronym = ESOP until this very moment...?

Let me help ....

An employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) is an employee-owner method that provides a company's workforce with an ownership interest in the company. In an ESOP, companies provide their employees with stock ownership, often at no up-front cost to the employees. ESOP shares, however, are part of employees' remuneration for work performed. Shares are allocated to employees and may be held in an ESOP trust until the employee retires or leaves the company. The shares are then sold.

That's just a snipet for the uninformed...but please tell me...where does it say = NOT FOR PROFIT..?!

Buggs Bunny fits right here =

I'm gonna use "uppity". Period. It's a good word to describe = snobby or pretentious. I am like Spooky...I never knew it was a term with racist connotation...& ya know what....I'm not sure I care. Why? COZ IT AIN'T RELEVANT TODAY.

& yes..I like to bold type sometimes...don't like it? Read the finger in the middle extended for you = easy to see.

I always thought of "uppity" as an admirable trait, among those that seek equality: "How dare that uppity woman think she could do a man's job!"

I don't buy any hype, I stated the facts. Walmart sells the same over the counter drugs as CVS, etc. At a much better price. Ditto for razor blades, toothpaste, soap etc. For people of any income level, a dollar saved is a dollar earned. Walmart also sells a lot of the same food as your local supermarket, often for a cheaper price. I would be willing to bet that you buy many products that Walmart does sell and you pay more for them. Free choice.

Don't get Steven started on global warming again.

Okeydokey, you love Walmart, great.

Okeydokey, you love Walmart, great.

They have great prices on feminine hygiene products. You should check it out.

You really hate it that much when someone criticizes wallmart? That's hilarious. BTW, I thought you were better than resorting to misogynistic insults, but clearly not.

I'm not sure it's family friendly either. I'll have to consult those that know...

Was that a thinly veiled bring in the mods threat...?

I was asked the same Q - it ain't about the Walmart....it's about the insult to the people which rely on Walmart pricing to make ends meet....Howz "bout show a little decency to those less fortunate than you?

&..Walmart does price match...for Christs sake..who doesn't love price matching?!

Nothing thinly veiled about it.

I like Walmart's liberal return policy, unlike, say,most of those mall boutique stores that only give store credit (or no return at all on sales items). I created quite a ruckus in Forever 21 over that issue.

I think it's unfortunate we can't have a civilized debate without exexpat posting a slew of racial slurs in his post.

I also think it's unfortunate that spooky has to resort to making sexist comments to another member just because she is a female and has a different opinion.

I (simply) advised my wife = return it if you don't like it & if they give you any pushback...request a manager.

So far = I have been exempt.

& that is the result thus far ...regardless.

Okay...let's play = I think it's unfortunate you deem your POV more relevant over another.....is that your left handed racism?

Yeah well it's easy to hide behind the screen. Your pekx2 might get hurt though if you say it to the wrong person in real life...

I must admit..in "real life" I run with people = advanced education & tenure... so I am not worried I might meet someone with your disposition.

Really where did I deem my pov more relevant than anyone else? Can you quote that.

I don't understand what left handed racism is.

Good grief, one, no it isn't. Two, even if it were so what? I don't think that's any of your concern either way quite frankly and three, you are the one who insults people by suggesting that the only place that a low income person can afford to shop to make ends meet is Walmart. How utterly patronizing and a totally blinkered point of view. Why do you make such an effort to protect Walmart's image? that is beyond bizarre.
