Movie Viewing Party

"'Wal-Mart: the High Cost of Low Prices.' It's a powerful exposé on the toll the Wal-Mart behemoth has taken on workers and communities across the country, and how we can help turn the tide. Wal-Mart is going into attack mode. The company has literally created a war room, staffed with political consultants who are working day and night to undermine

Actually, most real economists will tell you that Wal-Mart, with its international trade, has kept down inflation rates and helped the economy far more than other groups, especially those with Unions that cause the inflation rate to increase multi-fold.

Oh, and also, Wal-Mart was responsible to actually allow cheap goods to come onto Hawaii and given college students the ability to survive instead of paying 300% more for their items.

But obviously, you don't care about poor people, as you seem the type willing to blow 5 dollars on a cup of coffee that actually only costed 20 cents to make because it says "fair trade" and gives 5 more cents to their workers instead of costing only the original 15 cents.

Talk about propoganda. If you were a local of Western Maryland, then you would know how important the Wal-Marts were to the economy around here, but it appears that you are oblivious of anything beyond your own little world.

"You don't know me or anything about my views- political, economic, or anything. "

You made the topic. Obviously, if you didn't believe in it, you would have clarified or made that abundantly clear.

"Not being local does not mean that I am"

It means that you need to not be oblivious to the community around you and realize that hey, having such a piece is insulting to the community that WMC is a part of as Wal Mart paved the way for real stores to come into the area and restore the dying community that was destroyed by many Suburban people buying off the farm land and killing the tradition that was here, shopping 40 minutes away and not giving back, forcing the old families of Carrol County to go without food, jobs or anything, just so these spoiled little people don't have to live in a city with the black people that they claim to be so caring about.

Its hypocracy, plain and true.

Ok. You are free to make any assumptions about me that you wish to. I'm ending it here. It's not worth it anymore. I posted a quote, in quotation marks, to advertise an event that a club that I'm a member of was hosting. That's it. And frankly- I don't agree with most of the content of the movie. But I didn't feel in necessary to make that clear in an advertisement. This is because my views don't reflect the views of every member of the club or every member of the faculty that was sponsoring the event. Not once within that post did I say "And, I, personally agree fully with the views expressed within this film." Therefore, I don't believe that the post warrants your attack on my character. You're reading way too far into this.
