Walmart Dot Gov - What if Walmart and the US Govt combined?
When Congress passes the Sam Walton Federal Savings Act, Walmart wins an exclusive contract to supply the U.S. Government with discount body armor, health care, and tube socks.

Elected officials available at unbeatable values!

Defense items include the ShrapnelResist Fleece Vestie ($12.77)
Our lightweight fleece keeps body heat in and flying shrapnel out. Not for use near multiple IED's. Made from fully recycled materials, including shrapnel.

More in defense, customs, health care, and Congressional seats...

6. Corporations
They are the same...you seriously have to be diligent and even cherry pick your representatives to see who sticking to principle and who is bought.

I'd like to see everyone sticking to their principles forming a coalition against the multinational corporate takeover of the world.

At this point I feel like the various fractions who are concerned are infighting and there is one very big monster in the room being ignored.

9. lol
I'm thinking the way to go is the Civic Hybrid XTreme Firepower Edition, what more could a person want? It has extreme firepower while at the same time yielding up to 50 miles per gallon.
