Government is way to big and has been. Nothing good comes from a government with too much control only gets worse.

How is 12 employees losing their jobs racist? They chose to leave and not be reassigned within the company.

Racist?

If you really want to watch one of these invisible videos, and I have the same problem, there is a workaround even if you don’t care to watch this one.

On the post that you want to see the video, click on “quote” just like you would when you would want to respond to another person’s post.

When it quotes, you should see the YouTube link. For me it still does not work however until I put something in the comment. Then hit “preview”. I normally just hit a single character like a period, comma or any letter.

That will activate the link. I do not make the post and I deleted after I get the link to work.

Thanks. I have this problem often so I will try that and see if that works.

For you Walmart defenders out there, here's a summary of how they operate and why you should hate them:

1) They contact city/county governments of potential store sites to make nearby localities compete with one another by offering Walmart free infrastructure (roads, sewage, drainage) and tax rebates (typical store gets $10M in tax rebates for their first few years)

2) They build a store using their national contractors, depriving most of the local tradesmen of any of the work to build the store

3) They offer wages above the prevailing market wage to lure employees away from other employers (don't worry, these go back down later.)

4) They scout locally owned competitors for pricing, and undercut them

5) Let's say that your town happened to have a Carhartt factory, Walmart Corporate starts demanding lower and lower wholesale prices. Because Walmart represents 50% of Carhartt's sales, they can't afford to say no. So they start making cheaper products. Then they start manufacturing overseas. Soon the plant closes. You're still paying the same price for a Carhartt jacket, but now it's poorly made, and your neighbor Jim, who worked at the plant, is out of a job.

6) Your local mom & pop retailer, having lost some of their employees and still having to pay normal Carhartt wholesale prices, can't compete with Walmart. They go out of business. So now your neighbor Barbara is out of a job.

7) Your town is now devastated, with no manufacturing and no retail other than Walmart. As employees are treated poorly and quit, new employees, having nowhere else to turn, are forced to accept lower wages and part-time positions. They are forced to rely on welfare to feed their kids. Every year, everyone gets a little bit poorer as Walmart's corporate profits & stock price go up, and the last bits of wealth are extracted from your town and sent to Chinese manufacturers and Wall Street Shareholders. Many people now leave your town to look for better opportunities, splitting up families. Young adults go off to the big city and lose touch with their roots. Others turn to drugs out of despair, fueling an overdose epidemic. All the while, they have no choice but to shop at Walmart, due to a lack of options or due to the financial blight that the Walmart itself has brought to them and their family.

Now repeat this story 3,000 times across the country. So no, I don't care if people shoplift from Walmart. Walmart made the calculation that the cost of security plus the risk of a lawsuit wasn't worth stopping shoplifters when they can just let them take whatever they want and charge you, the consumer, for it.

Walmart sold out America for profit, and Sam Walton is spinning in his grave.

Too many people think corporations should be free to do anything they wish in the name of “free enterprise” to now include going around my personal doctor to dictate what is best for my health under threat of loss of livelihood. Our government offers corporations more freedoms than its own citizens and reform is needed. Its all about balance and EVERYTHING is out of balance right now

We are cattle

The political class are the ranchers

The corporations and their political partners are once again having steak tonight for dinner.

This happened right here in Texas in Hearne. Walmart came in, mom and pop shops in downtown couldn’t compete so they had to close, then after all the competition went out of business Walmart closed due to theft being out of control(go figure). This destroyed that little town and only in the past few years has it started to rebound thanks in part due to all of the traffic coming through on 79 and 6.

…..while we as a society are being led to the slaughter house if we don’t go along with it. Great analogy!

This is the whole premise of the “great reset”

This is a long read but worth it. Touches on this and so much more

a view into some scary territory
We basically now have on the left what we had on the right with the evolution of the oil industry , all or nothing

This will culminate in a massive shortage of energy , the question is when will that nexus occur when we are globally short both fossil fuel and renewable energy
Maybe 10 years?

The sustainability cheerleaders are ****** at the record profits from the oil majors but either they don’t have the guts or brains to admit or understand they are responsible

We have a tough road ahead
