He has an opinion for advertising, he did not say he was against gays.
People from his generation are traditionalists about things like that.
I'm not going to put people in the Ames Iowa plant out of work for it,
they needs jobs too.

Your analysis is of course accurate, widespread in nature, and totally
depressing.

How sad to see her feed him to abuse her.

Ugh.

It makes this place so unclean.

I agree. For some troglodytes in this ng it's probably a reason to buy
the brand.

Buy another brand and you'll keep other workers in work.

Why? I shop at a Walmart-like chain, and it can be convenient
to pick up some .22 long while I'm getting my regular groceries?

Granted, my husband is too much of a gun snob to actually buy guns
there (or at Walmart).

It most certainly is! "Over here" meaning the specific area where I live.
We have one in Lynnwood, the food center in Lynnwood and two in Everett.
All in high crime areas. But the Super store is in a particularly bad area.

Yeah, here's what I don't get. She won't eat frozen homemade soup, but
she'll buy from Schwann's.

You said it. The newer Walmart here is outside town, roughly halfway
between affluent Ann Arbor and affluent Saline. The older one is
in a more downscale area, but still notably lacking in high crime
rates.

I could generalize that Walmart favors the less impoverished parts
of towns and cities, where people have more disposable income.

His opinion. Evidently is is shared with many other advertisers. How
many *** or mixed race couples do you see in advertisement?

Most business owners have enough sense to keep their mouth shut. I'm
sure you buy many products from companies that you have an opposite
opinion of the CEO but they don't tell you about it.

Kellogg started because his cereal was supposed to lessen the desire for
masturbation. Have you had your corn flakes?

Where I am, Super Walmart is in a brand new area, and the old Walmart is
very close by to that. Also the ones that are in Stockton are in nice areas,
and there are a lot of bad areas there.

I buy Barilla now in spite of his attitude about a "classic family".
If he could shape the American legal landscape, maybe I'd have a
different viewpoint, but he doesn't and I don't. He's obviously an
old fashioned Italian whose POV was shaped by the old style church
thinking. He's also a businessman. If reflecting customers in
advertising becomes a trend in his markets, his ads probably will too.
If they don't change, he'll be dead soon and whoever takes charge of
the company will have a more enlightened attitude.

They go into the worst areas where I live. Nobody in affluent areas
wants a nearby Walmart devaluing property and the less affluent areas
need their paltry paying jobs.

Thanks.

Btw - "paltry" was just raised by them to $10/hr.

Still just a drop in the bucket. $15 an hour doesn't go very far

She can obviously afford it, if you can't you should move, and I disagree
about the city...I dislike San Francisco a whole lot and haven't gone back
for many years. To each their own.

We used to live in Lynnwood. Sorry to hear it had degenerated to such a level. OTOH, I saw a couple of dumb-looking guys working in cahoots to rip off a circular saw from a hardware store. The cashier told one guy that his buddy tried to walk out with a saw and he said "waahh?" Then he told them to beat it. I guess the criminals have gotten a little better at their craft. Otherwise, it was a pretty peaceful scene - at the time.

Thanks. I'm not part of the working poor, but it doesn't mean I'm
blind or unsympathetic.

F.W. Woolworth said that if there were the choice that you could screw
the rich or screw the poor, then screw the poor because there are more
of them.
That seems to be part of their philosophy.

My memories are still locked in the late 60s and late 70s when I last
visited.

I know it has changed A LOT since then.

And not for the better.

Of course not, a problem doesn't go away from ignoring it.

I loved SF in the 60's and 70's, but other things happened while there many
years ago and wouldn't go back again unless it was an absolute necessity.

Yawn...

Have a citation for that LIE?

You florid asshole.

Who is this "their" you raving left wing ****brain?

Frank Woolworth opened his first store, in Utica, New York State, in
1879 with the gimmick that everything was priced at five cents. It
failed because it was too far out of the town centre, but a second shop
in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, became a roaring success. He soon varied the
formula, selling some goods at 10 cents, and the famous 'five-and-dime'
store was born.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Winfield_Woolworth

He borrowed $300 and opened a five-cent store in Utica, New York, on
February 22, 1878. It failed within weeks. Woolworth opened his second
store in April 1879, in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he expanded the
concept to include merchandise priced at ten cents.

In 1911, the F.W. Woolworth Company was incorporated with 586 stores. In
1913, Woolworth built the Woolworth Building in New York City at a cost
of $13.5 million in cash. At the time, it was the tallest building in
the world, measuring 792 feet, or 241.4 meters.[13]

Woolworth often made unannounced visits to his stores, where he would
shoplift items to test the staff's attentiveness. Managers or clerks who
caught him doing so were sometimes rewarded with promotions.[14]

Yes, some problems solve themselves. The homophobe will retire soon.
Of course the question is how he raised his children

Cuz we all know it's so "normal" for gays to run more than 3% of the
market...

We used to live in Lynnwood. Sorry to hear it had degenerated to such a
level. OTOH, I saw a couple of dumb-looking guys working in cahoots to rip
off a circular saw from a hardware store. The cashier told one guy that his
buddy tried to walk out with a saw and he said "waahh?" Then he told them to
beat it. I guess the criminals have gotten a little better at their craft.
Otherwise, it was a pretty peaceful scene - at the time.

---

We moved to this area when I was 7. Lynnwood was pretty much all woods at
that point in time. There were some businesses. Not a lot. The big thing
was the Lynn-O-Rama. Not sure they even have that any more. There was a
parade and a small carnival.

They put the mall in around the late 70's to early 80's. Not sure the exact
year. It has been booming ever since. Lots of apartment buildings. I
can't say that overall, the city is bad but it does have its parts.

I don't think it's as bad as Everett or Marysville. I am very glad that we
did not move to Everett! When we first moved back here, the real estate
agent noticed me turning up my nose when she mentioned it. At that point in
time I was thinking mainly of the school district. She then balked, told me
that it no longer had a stigma and that she lived there. The fact that she
said, "no longer", indicated to me that she knew that it did have a stigma.
And perhaps when we first moved back here, it wasn't too bad. But it sure
is now.
