I may be retarded, that's pretty established but it has also been established
time and again that walmart wants to sell products at an excessively cheap
price and in order for the manufacturers to do that they must make them
cheaper. And you snipped out the link. Did you read it? Could you read it?

Or is this like the issue regarding the life insurance policies that walmart
takes out on its employees without their knowledge? You didn't even respond to
the citations posted, the ones you asked for.

Hey, i don't begrudge people their walmart experiences. You want to shop
there, it appeals to you, that's great. I'm lucky, I have options, I have not
been in a walmart in years and will not go back regardless of their prices.

also, do i have a bippy? Where is it?
