I live in NW Arkansas and was pleased to see the number 4 WalMart open a mile from my house. The prices were low and the staff was friendly. I saw Sam there once driving an old pick up truck. I was proud that a local company could pass Sears to be the #1 retailer. But over the years I've been saddened to see an increasingly malevolent attitude toward employees, customers, other retailers, and their suppliers.

As of today I will no longer be shopping at that blood sucking company. I salute those of you who have already made that choice. If you are still shopping there you might want to check your receipt before leaving the store.

How WalMart drove me into this fury over the fold.

I just read an article at The Automatic Earth that has me so mad I've got to write my first diary just to calm down.

The World Has Not Always Been this Way exposes the venality of corporations like Cargill, ADM, Nestle, and Monsanto in destroying peasant farms and third world countries.

I have some quotes over the fold but please read it all and pass it on.
