What is and should never be...

It was a valiant attempt.  A noble effort but a resounding failure.
Once again Americans showed that their desire to have stuff at  a cheap price far out weighs their sense of righteousness  and fairness exhibited to those who must struggle to provide those "Deals" for them.




What selfish and short sighted a society we appear to have become.  This simplest of actions that would have had such  imposing implications as well as a solid Championing of the American Worker was evidently not worth waiting one lousy day to advance a US labor cause that affects the whole Country today and as we go forward. You just helped the very people trying to screw you and screwed those trying to help you. What the Fuck Don"t You Understand ? Just how stupid are you ? Really!



Until it is they,you, who suffer from these labor/workforce maladies and then, low and behold, they will appear to hold accountable those they feel have wronged them as long as they don't miss a episode of American Idle or the Price is Right or whatever other seemingly indispensable TV Shows that have more power over their lives than the economics of their fellow Citizens who are desperately trying to keep their heads above water and keep their families together with a roof over their head and meals on  a table where children sit hopefully clothed to be be warm and comfortable like so many other fortunate Americans are.





All we had asked was that the American People stand and make a statement to these Mega Giants we have made who now rule with seeming impunity as to how their employees,the Public and the Government treat them and woe be onto anyone who would not agree with them.
And what a statement it could have been.

A WIN WIN I think.

And few if any would have lost out on those so called deals.

You know the ones for a TV built by a former US Electronics Manufacturer,say Zenith,now part of Samsung I believe,the Korean Mass Electronics Giant who is to Korea what RCA,Westinghouse or Admiral was once to us.

Did you think that the bargains would not be there the following day? Did you think they had crews of workers  at the ready to remove all that had been shipped and loaded onto aisles  or any other space where a box of product could be displayed with it's enticing artificially produced low price made possible by the stupidity of the very people who would now complete the fleecing of the American Citizen as he screamed with joy for having just been proven one of the biggest suckers in the World.

You just helped WalMart Fuck You and ALL their Employees,Subs and Contractors.

You think you got a deal but you have neither the facts or sadly the willingness to find out the true cost of that item,it's history or what WalMart demanded of the Manufacturer to attain that "Low Price".In so many cases there is no way for you to find out.WalMart makes the Manufacturers,Vender's and so on sign confidentiality clauses and such to hide deceptions and the downgraded components used to hit target production cost.Hidden costs are just that.They are the real story and if you are not privy to them you can not make an informed statement as to the true cost of that so called "Bargain"because the price at check out is far different than the actual cost.
It would have only taken this one damn day for you to show that you cared as much for your fellow Americans as they showed they care for you.

Yes they were out there for YOU as much as for themselves.In the cold and rain,many in pain physically and mentally and many knowing that thair action could quite possibly cost them that job. Intimidation and backlash are well known results of asking to be heard in today's employees lives..
This action was for the American Worker.  All Workers. WalMart was the target because they are the ones who brought us this warped dysfunctional design of a business that supplants their profits by robbing local Towns and Cities through the use of Public Services to care for the employees while WalMart pays nothing and often receives incentives from the Municipality to remain for its meager Tax Base contribution to that city now devoid of all others as WalMart drove them away or into bankruptcy.

So they built you that Skateboard Track or supplied the HS Football Uniforms or gave Gym Equipment.Far Out! BFD!!!!!

Mom and Pop,Church.Pop Warner and so on have done those things for generations and without spending millions on TV to tell everyone how Great They Are to do it. Giving is because it's a good thing not so you can go tell everyone how great you are for doing it. WalMart is not doing this for Morals but for their Bottom Line so please wake the Fuck Up as to what this is really about.
And these small and inadequate gestures are in no way a reasonable trade off for what has been lost in transition.

Decades,Generations,and scores of lifestyles have forever been cast to scrape yard of American History

I frankly just don't get it. The evidence is overwhelming and the solutions abound and are tried and true. We have done this before and know it is a call to change a faulty unfair and unsustainable system that has taken deep root but has an easy fix.

So why not now ?

Consumers have the power to dictate to retailers if they want to. That's the key.

Do you care more about saving money or the American Way.

They do not have to be exclusive of each other,there is a balance.A Sweet Spot so to say and was more the norm before the Waltons and others decimated it with their NEO Slash n Burn Business model that is based on deceit rather than performance or value.
Peel back the facade they created and you will see the ruins of the many they used to accomplish their rise to the Top Of The Heap.Dishonor,lies and minipulation are some of  their tools and methods and they are PROUD of that.Whew!



And you want to keep them Kings ?

Robbing and cheating you and yours while blowing smoke up your silly ass thinking they are there for you.You beleive in Clean Coal I suppose and think Sadam caused 9/11 too.
Please wake up and see the truth that is staring you in the face before the complete transformation of our Country to Facism is accomplished due to you not being able to see reality or worse, knowing and being silent so you can save a few dollars.
Priceless.
