Shopping

It is 12:53 pm, Thursday, November 6, and I have just seen the first Wal-Mart Christmas TV ad of the season. Of course, I haven't set foot in one of their stores for about 15 years, and I don't intend to, until they run everyone else out of business, or I die -- whichever comes first. (Actually, I suppose when I die, my needs will be severely diminished.)

Good times for Wal-Mart are rapidly approaching. In this fluctuating market, other stores are closing everywhere. All they have to do is hunker down, and wait for the time when Obama socialism will declare them to be the State Store, and through skillful negotiation they will set the price of your life. Government officials who are paid $200,000 per year, together with the company owned by several of the richest people in the world, will tell us what we can have and how much we will pay for it. It will be called the Obamination of America.
