LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -- Wal-Mart heir John T. Walton, who died in the crash of his experimental, ultralight aircraft, was remembered as a down-to-earth man who threw his considerable financial support behind efforts to educate low-income children.

Wal*Mart looks incredibly different from within Wal*Mart than it ever would to those that aren't initiated.

Just head to Germany, its closer.
I wouldn't exactly consider it to be a cult.... just an insanely well-organized distribution center. Its a culture....
OohOHhhh, culture....

Not taking Wally's side, just an observation:
I hear people in the Pub use the high cost of consumer goods as justification for stealing, then I hear those same people bash Wal-Mart for putting their competition out of business with low prices.
If everyone's favorite bashing target went out of business tomorrow, all the Wally-bashers would immediately start complaining about how expensive everything has suddenly become.
It seems like some people just like to complain and will always find something to complain about.

Why is Wal-Mart the EVIL ONE? I don't get it. If you want to condemn them and not all the capitalist enterprises out here, then that's just hypocritical IMO.
By the way I shop at Wal-Mart. And anywhere else I need things in the evil empire.

There's a Wal*Mart in my town, but I've never been to it. See as I don't drive I would have to bike there if I wanted to go, but there's the rub, because the route from my place to there passes through the upper-middle class area of town... And I'll be damned if I'm going to spend the energy to bike uphill past all those coke-head yuppies just so I might save a buck instead of going to the Canadian Tire or Zellers.

"Why is Wal-Mart the EVIL ONE?" I don't buy that...everyone knows that it is Microsoft that is evil.

Lol. Wal-Mart sells stuff that works just fine. It's not like they sell majority Wal-Mart branded anything. It's all name brand stuff. The price isn't even that amazing? Maybe like a dollar here or there. I don't get it.
And it's Wal-Mart, not Wall-Mart. For those Europeans out there
