    I prefer passionate over resentment and there is a big difference. I don't believe I stated anything not to be true and all your rebuttals are more to make you people feel better rather than shoot down my facts. The only reason I got involved in this is someone saying how good wallyworld is to work for. And that only applies to a very small percentage.

    LOL. Try the other way around. You say Wal-Mart is being subsidized, that is factually incorrect.

    You said Wal-Mart turned your town into a ghost town, but we never said what town that was.

    You said Wal-Mart can afford to pay $15, but never addressed the point if said employees are even worth $15.

    Also what about that small business down the road? Should they and their thin profit margins be forced to pay $15 too?

    The "American Dream" is not that every man must be level with every other man. The "American Dream" is that every man must be free to become whatever God intends he should become.

    It isn't so much that 6 Speed is ignorant. It's just that he knows so many things that aren't so.

    You sure do lack specifics. You said your town, what town is that? Why are you so unwilling to say where that is?

    Are you actually implying Wal-Mart is making Ghost towns all over the place?

    And how does a tax abatement apply to anything you have said? First you said tax subsidies, now it's tax abatement? You do know subsidies and abatements are two different things right?[​IMG]

    And you hace twice dodged my question about the small business down the road. Should they be forced to pay $15 an hour too?

    And what about being worth $15?

    Walmart drivers make less than $15 an hour if you calculate it the right way instead of convincing yourself you don't work that much.

    I'm sure if you factor in the time spent away from home.

    Maybe, but not that time is spent working.
