RE: wal-mart guns
Your 80-year old neighbor took the words out of my mouth. I was just waiting to get to the end of the 8 pages of posts in order to make that same exact statement. People look...there have been a lot of companys that have grown to gargantuan size only to be later slapped around by Uncle Sam...i.e. AT&T who is a sad twist was recently bought out by one of their earlier spin offs. Just wait, Microsoft with eventually get their's too!
Just wait...all those cheap labor cost in China will disappear. China has experienced a huge economic boom because all the developed countries in the world know its cheaper to get things built there. But...those Chinese...all 1.5 billion of them are starting to make a few dollars/yen/whatever and are starting to want the house, two cars, big TV, etc. They'll soon stop working for a few grains of rice and demand higher wages/better benefits. Cheap Chinese labor will soon go away. Who knows...one day it may come full circle and the US has the cheapest labor costs.
Peace, love, and a large caliber handgun!
