RonD1120 58 #51 September 15, 2014 It just doesn't seem to be that big of a deal to me. Americans manage the stores and Americans are employed. A big plus for me concerning Walmart is that they hire folks that would have a very difficult time finding employment elsewhere.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

airdvr 197 #52 September 15, 2014 billvonQuoteWe shop for groceries at Walmart because they are cheaper. A good point, and for most Americans, that's really all that matters. ***I believe such transactions benefit the American economy. I don't care where the products are manufactured. So you do not see any benefit to sending money to US companies rather than Chinese companies? Interesting. Time out! What automobile do you drive Bill?

JerryBaumchen 1,048 #53 September 16, 2014 Hi Ron, QuoteDo you and Jerry realize that Walmart is a great American success story. Where did I say/type anything about what I 'realize' and/or whether WalMart is/is not a success? I am well aware that WalMart has been a fantastic financial success for the members of the Walton family; and probably a fair number of other people also. Please do not put words into my mouth. I have really never had much of a problem in life stating my views for myself. JerryBaumchen PS) And please do not make any assumptions about what I say/type. If it is not clear to you, contact me for further information. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RonD1120 58 #54 September 16, 2014 I was just reacting to your negative attitude toward American success. BTW, yes, would have been an efficient and accurate response to my statement.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

Andy9o8 0 #56 September 16, 2014 That's the second time you've twisted Jerry's words. This time clearly you're deliberately trying to provoke him to anger- as is your typical pattern on this forum. You owe him an apology. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RonD1120 58 #61 September 16, 2014 Nah, it's not worth it. I'm shinin' this on. I made a comment and the libs are trying to build a case out of it.

It's just that if once you start posting that comment, it'll be pretty much the only comment you post at all, heck, I can think of two posters here that'll just keep you busy full time just trying to police them on that item alone (trolling to make someone mad). ...
