Attention Walmart Shoppers

I haven't shopped there in awhile, just because other stores are closer but I guess I have to add Wallyworld to my ever expanding black list.

I know uncle Walt is doing it for the money but he's robbing Peter to Pay Paul.

Policy-wise, there’s plenty of reason for the Waltons to like Barack Obama:

1. Wal-Mart endorsed the employer mandate in ObamaCare, which gives Wal-Mart an advantage by crushing smaller competitors.
2. Wal-Mart has profited from Dodd-Frank, which fixes the price Wal-Mart has to pay banks for processing debit cards.
3. Wal-Mart has lobbied for and profits from higher minimum wage.
4. Wal-Mart is a top beneficiary of eminent domain takings, a government power protected by the types of judges Obama appoints.
5. Big Business generally benefits from Big Government.

So, yes, Mitt Romney is cozy with Big Business and big donors. But don’t pretend Obama is any different.
EDIT: Sorry, late night. I copied the link but forgot to add it.

If you quote something, you should provide a link so that we can read the entire article, paper, etc. to understand the quote in context and also to see the source of the quote.
