Subliminal messages at Walmart
I was shopping at Walmart this past weekend and they were playing the usual music overhead. I wasn't paying attention to the recording until I heard the name of GWB. It said something about him being a great leader, then continued the music. This was all very soft and somewhat hard to hear. I've been bothered all week about this, wondering who made that recording, why did they make it, what was their intentions, and, who allowed this to play. Very scarry indeed.

2. go back, get the manager and gripe
i speak out with everything. i dont get why people walk away and dont say anything. bush and repugs for three years have told us to shut up. we dont have to shut up. go in there and ask what this crap is, and ask loud

3. My local grocery store
plays some Faux channel that does the basically same thing. There will be muzak and then some guy comes on reads the "news"/talking points for a few minutes and than back to muzak. I hadn't really thought about it before you said something. It is creepy. It's also one the reasons I don't shop there unless I absolutely have to.

5. What's it like inside a WalMart these days? Been boycotting for several
months now - I don't miss the place, or the people that shop there at all.

8. Walmart these days
Shitty work conditions, crap strewn all over the place and prices that go up daily.

Probably no different than when you last visited.
