Nobody would've seen this if Wal-Mart hadn't sued the little guy. So more power to him - here's a little more unwanted publicity for the idiots at Wal-Mart. They may be our biggest company, but they're our stupidist too. Go ahead, sue HP you dolts. If I said "Wal-Mart donates their profits to satan" that's one thing. Oh, wait, I just said that. Oops.
It all ties together though folks. Wal-Mart. China. Trade imbalance. Bonds. Dollar. Low interest rates. Housing Bubble. Economic collapse.
Wal-Mart Parodist Sues to Sell Products
Computer store owner Charles Smith is the first to admit the T-shirts and mugs he designed to lampoon Wal-Mart Stores Inc. are in bad taste. But Smith had wanted to make a point by comparing the giant retail company to the Nazis.
So he created slogans playing off the Bentonville, Ark., firm's familiar logo, including "I {heart} WAL*OCAUST.
They have family values and their alcohol, tobacco and firearms are 20% off." Wal-Mart wasn't amused. The company launched a legal battle by writing a cease-and-desist demand that led Smith to file suit Monday in federal court in Atlanta

Wal-Mart is merely responding to consumer desires to buy cheap goods. If customers didn't want to shop at WalMart they wouldn't be the biggest corporation in the world.
If you don't like WalMart don't shop there. For me, I find it's more cost effective to go to the local supermarket even if I pay a little more because it takes a lot less time.
In essence, don't shoot the middleman. I put the blame on marketers that have convinced people they need new stuff and anything used is worthless.
moman - I agree - humanity caused wal-mart. they just responded to the masses desire for cheap chinese goods. made in the usa? HA! give us cheap!
but they are evil. and so are we.
Where do you find all the hilarious pictures you use on this site? They're all uniformly wonderful.
The kids on South Park explained all of this last year.
2 million WalMart employees with no health care. Who pays their hospital bills when they become sick? Think about it. Chinese laborers at 50cents an hour, How can we compete against that? No labor laws in China either.
Who cares right?
I work @ Walmart for the momemt and I can tell any and all bad about Walmart would be the truth, about the insurance there are only 1/3 of all full time and part time associates that have health insurance because the rest can not afford it. As to a person who would want to be in management at Walmart has to be into S&M.
