My dad actually knew Sam Walton, and Sam was the kind of guy that tried to keep Wal-Mart family oriented. So sue them for trying to depict that in their commercials
That's funny, because one of my husband's best friends was offered a job in Wal-Mart's corporate offices in Arkansas but when they were going over the particulars of the offer and he told them that he couldn't agree to be available for work three weekends a month because he coached his son's baseball team, Wal-Mart rescinded the job offer. That is family oriented???

Four out of ten of the richest people in the world are Sam Walton's heirs...

I don't know if you're still in school or have graduated already, but I hope you don't mind a piece of wisdom from someone who has been out there in corporate America. You don't accumulate that staggering level of wealth by being all warm-n-fuzzy.

And, I think that saying people "suck" because they don't share your fond view of Wal-Mart is uncouth.
