Wal-Mart vs The Morons


GeeeZ readers;  I don't know who wrote this (I'm grateful to Pris for emailing it to me) but I checked with Snopes and they say "Mostly Accurate" (which, because it's a piece that reflects badly on Liberals, means "ABSOLUTELY TRUE" or we'd have heard every inacccuracy)...by the way, Sam Walton was a staunch Republican:

Wal-Mart vs. The Morons

1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart every hour of every day.
 
2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!
 
3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year.
 
4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined.

 5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest private employer, and most speak
English.
 
6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.
 
7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.
 
8.During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains sought bankruptcy.
 
9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.

10.  Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago.
 
11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)
 
12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart.
 
You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy.
 
This should be read and understood by all Americans and Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!
 
To  President Obama, many past presidents, and all 535 voting members of the Legislature, then and now:

 It is now official that the majority of you are corrupt and ineffective:

a.. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 237 years to get it right and it
is broke.

b. Social Security was established in 1935.  You have had 77 years to get it right and it is broke.

c. Fannie Mae was established in 1938.  You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.  

d.. War on Poverty started in 1964.  You have had 48 years to get it right;  $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.

e. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965.  You have had 47 years to get it right and they are
broke.

f. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 42 years to get it right and it is broke.

g. The Department of Energy was created in1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil.  It has ballooned to 16,000employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever
before.  You had 35 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.
 
You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.

 AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM? (largely managed by the IRS??~)

 Folks, keep this circulating.  It is very well stated.  Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected'(they never read anything) officials and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel. 

AND...We have lost our minds to  "Political Correctness"! We're "broke" & can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc., but,  in the last months we have provided aid to Haiti, and Turkey .and Pakistan ........previous home of Bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS, while our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no extra aid nor do they get any special breaks--nada beyond shopping discounts.

AND Congress wants to freeze Social Security payments. You do know that Congress voted  themselves a pay raise for 2013?  Google this--it's true!   (end)

Z:  Let me just add that Detroit's had Democrat mayors since 1962, and every channel I've listened to since the bankruptcy says "Detroit started running a large debt sixty years ago.."   Coincidence?  All this 'give away' stuff for votes that the Left started sixty years ago has never worked...we just didn't know that yet.
SO...what do we do NOW, folks?
