Out of all the stuff from last night, the only thing to elicit a comment was the one about Walmart with a picture of one of their outlets which went out of business, in this case in Sharonville in Cincinnati, some years ago.
Defense of the corporation at all costs?? This makes little sense to me as their vile business practices are hardly a secret in America.
There are good corporations out there with positive practices which actually build America in strength and pride. SpaceX is an example of this although we question their engagement with the military contracts because that's rarely a positive sign. Nevertheless, most of that which we have seen from them has been the best of American ingenuity with yet another example in the test of the HyperLoop in Las Vegas a few days ago. Elon Musk inspired it the next thing to come, some years, later was the reality of that dream as a bullet train shooting over the desert as fast as (drum roll) a scalded dog.
We admire that which makes America great and we do not admire corporations which only suck from the government teat. Walmart is the latter insofar as it buries the minimum wage and the state is forced to make up for that by paying their workers Federal benefits.
Continuing with this is pointless on this side because we see zero benefit to America from the Waltons and a great deal they take. It's the prime case of corporate welfare in the country so why would anyone defend that when it is self-evident and has been abundantly publicized.
Here at the Rockhouse, we have supported Elon Musk as an excellent example of American ingenuity in bringing positive and helpful products which are fundamentally different from anything which came before them. We firmly believe this type of innovation is the future of America and it's a relatively young man leading all of it.
Walmart offers nothing, however, except in terms of despair, externalization of markets, and parasitization of benefits from the state while it proffers itself as a representative of goodness insofar as, oh, we make all these jobs. Well, thanks for nothing when the jobs suck as almost all of them do except the Waltons at the top. In terms of selection for corporate defense, that's easily one of the worst non-'defense' corporations.
Apple was another shining example but not anymore because they're rapidly throwing away their skills in high-level innovation and devoting them to senseless gimcrackery such as the Apple iWatch which is the Ted Cook vision but it is so, so ground level. It's also taking a dive as Apple stock falls and their real products get harder to push. This, for us, is regrettable since Apple has been another model of innovation but that seems often tied to personality and it falters once that personality is gone.
That one was deemed a low-level snipe but we're not frosted as with the recent wave of atheists, the best of whom in that crowd would be a second-rate clerk in a third-rate warehouse, and they're damn sure pushing an agenda ... and BELIEVE IT, BITCH. Well, gee, how can I reject a cogent argument like that, huh. In this case, however, we did not see any objective toward oratorial penis extension in the snipe so we let it slide.
Facts, matey, mates. We needa da facts, you know.
Update: just noticed out of four articles from last night, that was the only one to draw a comment and the others were relatively cheerful, hopefully even funny, but Walmart pic was the big draw in that list. That's really kind of disappointing from that anthropological aspect in terms of that which motivates a comment. Nevertheless, everything is science, and we have to accept results even when we don't like them.

Then quit doing business with them You are the only one writing or commenting that is supporting them by doing business with them
That's much easier to say than to do. I'm not being cagey about the situation because I don't really know but it isn't good.
