WE RECENTLY VENUTRED INTO A WALMART. WELL ACTUALLY WE WERE KIDNAPPED AND TAKEN THERE WITHOUT OUR CONSENT ON A BEAUTIFUL SATURDAY MORNING. IT WOULD BE A QUICK TRIP IN FOR ONE ITEM, WHATS THE WORST THAT COULD POSSIBLY HAPPEN?
WALMART WANTS YOUR PAYCHECK. IN SOME COMMUNITIES, THEY TAKE A GOOD 70-80% BY OFFERING BARGAIN BASEMENT PRICES UNDER ONE ROOF, PUTTING MOM AND POP ESTABLISHMENTS OUT OF BUSINESS FOR DECADES. THE COMMERCIAL MAY SHOW “ACTIVE LIFESTYLE” BUT WALKING INTO THE MEGA-MART BEHIND A FAMILY WHOSE BREATHY TOP-HEAVY MOVEMENTS SEEMED LIKE SLOW MOTION WADDLING, IT WAS APPARENT WE WERE IN WALMART COUNTRY NOW. OUR ITEM WAS ON THE OPPOSITE END OF THE FOOTBALL FIELD SIZED DEPOT. WE DISCUSSED, TYSON CHICKEN, FEMA, MONSANTO, & ASIAN PRODUCTION, NOTICING HOW MUCH GARBAGE WAS DIRECT FROM CHINA. WALKING AWAY WE HEARD DISGRUNTLED MUMBLES FROM A STOCKIST, I LOUDLY RESPONDED TO HIM “I FULLY SUPPORT YOUR FREEDOM OF SPEECH IN AMERICA“
AT THE CHECKOUT, THE SALES CLERK DECLARED HE HAD ONLY BEEN WORKING THERE FOR A FEW DAYS. THIS MADE US REALIZE THAT THIS MASSIVE WALMART WAS ACTUALLY A PANOPTICON, WITH THE EMPLOYEES SCURRYING AROUND LIKE PEONS FOR $TWO FIFTY AN HOUR AFRAID FOR THEIR LIVES. THEY MADE NO EYE CONTACT WITH CUSTOMERS, IN THIS BIZARRE MORTUARY WE NOTICED THERE WERE NO FLOOR MANAGERS AROUND, LET ALONE A STORE MANAGER TO TALK TO. EVEN ALAN GREENSPAN DECLARED “INSECURE WORKERS ARE VITAL TO THE HEALTH OF THE ECONOMY, SINCE THEY KEEP INFLATION LOW (BY BEING TOO SCARED TO RISK ASKING FOR WAGE INCREASES).” THAT DOESN’T SOUND TOO FAR OFF FROM BEING AN INDENTURED SERVANT @THE WALTONS ARKANSAS PLANTATION Y’ALL
