Walmart: The High Cost of Low Prices

Sorry this is bugging me… why were administrators giving a talk on poverty?

Why, teacher training, of course! That’s just how the public schools operate, as farming centers for socialization and social justice. When you think about it, it’s just more evidence that government schoolteachers are not educators, but social workers for the state, so these kinds of problems weigh heavily on their minds. The state schools are cruel places, practically laboratories of socio-pathology where young people are institutionalized and indoctrinated, so they feel the need for these kinds of programs to keep the teachers better prepared and better equipped to be effective classroom “managers.”

Curriculum and real education really don’t matter to administrators. At least that was my experience.

You all were being trained to be able to understand the causes of poverty? Specious cover…

“Are we going to consider government roads and government medical plans for Wal-Mart employees as governments subsidies?”

now we’re getting somewhere…

no not roads…all businesses are going to have acces to those…there’s no unfair advantage there…

what governemnt medical plans? medicaid?

you got anything else? more directly linked to wal mart?

this is the most important question in this thread…

From the top of my head, some possibilities.

  • emminet domain?

  • how the selling of the land to build the walmart was handled?

  • Benefits from having limited liabilty as opposed to mom and pop stores which might be sole proprieterships.
