    If they are dying, perhaps. It was a very bad joke.

    Boycotting Walmart is only a partial solution. And it doesn't begin to address the bigger problem. It's not like Apple stuff sold in Apples stores is made in the USA and Apple stuff sold in Walmart is made in China.

    Almost everything Walmart sells is made in China. Boycotting Walmart and buying the same chinese made item from Mom and Pop serves no purpose other than you emptying your wallet faster. Manufacturing will never come back to America as long as the F500 companies can peddle their offshore made crap.

    The only solution is to starve the beast and do without. No Ipods. No tvs. No cellphones.

    Can you do that?

    Boy do I need to tell you where my parents are from?



    They're actually greasy wops and micks right off the boat, so I'm full of drunken hate.

    Depends, China is also the lead destination aside from Canada for US exports, are you prepared to deal with the repercussions?

    I think the words need not assume the power of hatred. What do you care whether someone might harbor prejudice or not? Words are just words until someone gives them life with their response.

    Irish and Italian... in your family history there was most likely at least one wedding that didn't get wholehearted endorsement from both families... so there's probably some inherent drunken self-loathing to boot -eh?

    I won't spend my money at any corporate store, walmart, safeway, target, fred meyer. They are all the same. Unless I have NO options i refuse to go in there. I tell the people i know the same but man people just need to go in there. Sickening
