***********************

I stopped subscribing fifty years ago. They were fine in their ratings of small appliances and household white-goods, stuff that could be replaced without breaking the bank. When it came to major expenditures they wouldn't say you know what, if they had a mouthful. I bought a 1965 Oldsmobile after checking Consumer Reports for that model and noted that the brakes might fade in panic stops. Two months later the car was totaled, in a no collision crash during a rainstorm on the PA Turnpike. My wife was driving her mother home and someone cut her off on a bridge. She slammed on the brakes and the car went totally out of control, spinning end for end while bouncing off the center divider and the bridge rail. She came to a stop with the back half of the car over the rail, balancing seventy feet in the air. Rescuers had to hold down the front of the car so they could get out.

Ask the employers at Costco how much they get paid then ask the employees at Walmart how many need food stamps to eat. Walmart not only gets major corporate subsidies they also import 90% of there GD products from China. I would not spend 10 in any Walmart store.

Well yes, it is our business. As God fearing Americans the status of our fellow residents in this great land is morally important.
Monetarily it counts as well, a person earning minimum wage qualifies for every federal benefit offered. Do you know how much that costs the taxpayer rather than the employer?

Do you honestly think it makes sense for you and I to pay for food for retail workers to be able to eat and feed their children, to go to the doctor...when these companies are making billions?
Really?
You may remember this one.

Obviously you won't get it from a lib. Probably won't get it from the GOP. You won't get it from any media including Fox.
You might get it in a small town barber shop.
T***h is a scarce commodity now days. Won't find it DC.
So good luck. I quit looking for t***h in this country years ago. Especially on the media net works, news papers or magazines.
Every thing is for propaganda purposes. You know like Hitler did just before he really took over.
Again good luck. Please let us know if you happen to find it.
You know, I don't know of any news outlet that has the word t***h in it. Hmmm.

Good day.

I have to ask about outsized power you give to Hitler as time goes by.
Could you compare for us the number of nations there are and the number of nations that Hitler and his N**is were able to take over and for how long?
So speaking of t***h, I guess we won't get it from you, either?


its obvious you wernt around in the 40s .hitler defeated himself by jumping on russia and that took most of his army.if they had been on the normandy shores he would have stopped the invasion.

But that not true Costco is a bulk supplier of goods that if you buy in bulk you save a lot more than your membership cost. Go to Costco and watch business owners with carts full of products. The Walmart myth is crazy. They have goods that actually cost more than your local super market.

But when it comes to the TPer's they still think George Bush did not create the Great Recession of 2008. So how what you expect them to check prices.


i hope you dont think that costco is the only one doing this.sams does the samething and they are cheaper

I am sure a company that makes 20,000.00 a second doesn't really need your 10 spot. And since you are an American knew freedom about 7 years ago.

I have written plenty of checks to the insurance company. It is not expensive, it is certainly less expensive than defending the business against a suit and trying to develop a case that proves that there was no neglect or danger.


if that is the case wait until you have a claim youll find out.but i dont believe you mhave a business just by the way you talk.
