So, until America actually gives a shit about its lower middle and lower class, Walmart will be the only place a lot of people can shop. Not their fault. Not their fault for being poor. Maybe their fault for being greasy and weird, but it's not their fault for being poor or freaks. If you can afford not to shop with freaks, I recommend it. If you can't, don't scorn them for their poverty.

Yeah, but it's a catch-22. They treat their customers (who are often poor or needy, lower-class) like shit. They skimp out on healthcare and other such benefits and compromise fair treatment for low prices.

I haven't shopped a Wal*Mart for three years, and don't plan to ever again.
