Walmart says it will kill plans to build 3 new stores if DC wage bill passes

This is just stupid:



So people who work in big stores require 12.50 an hour to have a living wage, but people who work elsewhere only require 8.50? Despite living in the same town? With similar if not the same cost of living? How does that make sense?

Exactly. This isn't about the workers- it's a deliberate effort to unfairly target Wal-Mart and keep it out of the District by angry unions and anti-Wally World leftists.

Wal Mart may have a number of very flawed corporate practices, but the District, with its high unemployment rate and notorious food deserts, is in desperate need of both jobs and grocery stores. Bad move overall.
 
When someone in DC cannot spend their grocery budget, be reeeeeal sure and let me know.

You really don't understand the food desert, do you? Really. Wow.
 
no, I meant "guys" ... disappointed?

That's not what you said. You said "you guys" to me, and I'm "colored". So obviously you meant colored people are stupid. Shame on you.
 
when ever I am affronted with something on this board, I ask myself this question......who's property is it?

I don't makes decisions based on how I feel ,but what the laws says.

laws based on feelings, are a disaster in the making.

O.K. ... :peace

What else are you? Male? So I meant men are stupid? You're from DC Metro. So I meant you DC Metro people are stupid? If you're a father and husband, did I mean husbands and fathers are dumb? The irony is that your response makes it very clear who is dumber than a speedbump ... gotta go mac ... You need some fresh air ... get out of that basement, go for a walk ... :2wave:
 
and they're so stupid that they don't know it? We missed you apdst ... you make the rest of us sound so much smarter than we really are ...

So smart that you keep supporting a failed system. Grow up!
 
"You guys"? you mean us coloreds?

Of course they think us colored folks are stupid. Windowdressing valled me stupid just now. "Dumbass niggers and spicks bettet git in line", say the Liberals.

Our system is failing? Just think where we'd be had Bush and the GOP had another four years ... I don't blame you for not thinking about it, it's scary ... I trust you no longer pay taxes, lest you be supporting this system ... If you do, you should stop and thereby engage in an act of civil disobedience ... so, while you do the principled thing and not pay taxes, and then go to prison for tax evasion, I'll work on growing up ... Deal?
 
Let us all hope he gets the 2016 GOP nomination for President. Maybe Cruz as the VP if Palin won't run.

I'm doing all that I can do to make that happen. But I don't think Palin should be VP ... she's a natural for Secretary of Education ... I have Ron, his daddy, as Secretary of State ... one of the Koch brothers for Secretary of Labor ... Santorum for Pope of the United States (a new cabinet position) ... Perry as our ambassador to Texas (Texas seceded, right?) ... Romney as our ambassador to France (I had him for England, but after his disastrous visit there during the Olympics, I changed my mind -- and in any event Mitt can finish his bike trip in France that he started during the War in Vietnam), Limbaugh for Press Secretary, and Bachmann and Beck to head a mental health task force that will begin by examining the two of them ...

Do you and mac refer to yourselves as coloreds? So what color are you guys? I'm one of the brown ones, better known to the GOP as those illegals with calves the size of cantalopes from carrying 75 pounds of weed across the border day in and day out ...

it has got to be frustrating as all hell for you guys, how the Dems hate colored folk and yet they still continue to vote Dem ... wow ... I know that would drive me up a tree ...

No. It's obvious you meant "coloreds" are stupid owing to your earlier statement about "coloreds".

Just more proof of Democrat racism in my book.

With all the lies and revisionism Democrats spew, it's easy to see how some are misled.

Where would we be, in your opinion?

LOL ... at least you haven't lost your sense of humor, but then again, the GOP is like a circus and maybe you're hoping to be one of its clowns ... Am I right?

85-90% misled is "some?" Are you nuts? "Some" typically means a little, a few ... 85-95%, which is what Clinton, Gore, Kerry, and Obama got is the vast majority, not "some" ... Now tell me, are blacks misled more easily than whites? (Be careful, it's a trick question.)

in the toilet Mac, in the toilet .... Bush had a surplus, squandered it, then took us to the brink of a depression, and then the big-eared guy saved our butts ... be thankful ... Don't be such an ingrate ...

This just in - that dog don't hunt. Time for a new slogan.

Wait a minute - you're not implying that the right wing thinks blacks and other minorities vote for Democrats because they're stupid, are you? Why that cannot be, because that would be racism of the most base kind!:lamo

I'm a black'un. Inown to the Libbos as an Uncle Tom.

How do you explain the 10 or 25 pecent that don't vote Democrat?
 
How do you explain the 10 or 25 pecent that don't vote Democrat?

I explain it as Affirmative Action, which by lifting up millions of Blacks, had an unintended side-effect: middle and upper middle class Black, especially children of Affirmative Action parents, start thinking they're better and did it all on their own, which created a rift in the Black Community, between so called Huxtable Blacks and Ghetto Blacks. And while many Huxtable Black do remain staunchly Democrat, many have not only adopted formerly white middle class neighborhoods, but also the ignorance and bigotry that goes with feeling apart from others.

Only the ones that have not read Uncle Tom's Cabin and thus know how insulted Harriet Beecher Stowe would be that her Uncle Tom character, which is anything but an "Uncle Tom" came to be associated with the racist slur.
