Support Christmas in America by refusing to buy their crap. If we care about our jobs then we wouldn't be shopping in half the places we shop.

Merry Christmas and happy pink slips.

2. My pledge for the remainder of this month
and beyond, if opportunity allows, is to spread the word about the evils of WalMart. Every day I have been out in public since Dec 1, I have found someone to casually badmouth WalMart to. Especially the loss-leader toys department to drive the toy companies out of business, then they'll trim their toy inventory and we'll have nothing left, no selection. I also tell people about their benefits' policy and pay, etc, etc...(you know why they are bad for america)

3. Good work.
Furthermore, when wal-mart is the only game in town. Does anyone think that they will continue with their low prices, even though they are selling the same made in China crap? No they will not, and there will be no competitors to choose from.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to the audio stream. And a special thanks for informing whomever you can n what buying cheap crap does to the fabric of this country.
