Why they really hate Wal-Mart
I have a theory about why the "Elite" hate Wal-Mart. I believe they hate it because it allows the proletariat to have things that look as nice as the things the Elite people have. How can you incite people to overthrow the government and put you in power unless they are both Poor AND downtrodden? And the way to keep them both is to deny them gainful employment AND a comfortable life for themselves and their families.
One of the unmentioned benefits of the Industrial Revolution was the mass production of furniture, fixtures and equipment (such as china) at prices low enough for the working class people to own them -- as well as the jobs making and distributing those things, which allows them to pay for them. Wal-Mart is carrying on this tradition and the Lefty Elite hate it because people can no longer tell the difference between the kitchen of an Elite and the kitchen of a Prole.
There are seven deadly sins, but in my own opinion the most dangerous sin of them all is Envy/Jealousy. Keeping the Proles both poor and downtrodden allows you to cultivate envy and jealousy in them that will lead to your rise in power. And Wal-Mart stands between the Elite Liberals and power -- so Wal-Mart must go.
It's simple, really, if you got your education before Universities became trade schools and 'education' became 'relevant' ...
Full Disclosure:
I'm a liberal arts graduate with a major in West Saxon Literature and a minor in Victorian History. Although Mama questioned my sanity when I declared my field of study, I've found Victorian History explains a lot of things missed by those Elites who major in "Gender Issues in Contemporary Rock and Roll" or in my own generation "Vietnam Awareness". If you still read books, read Gertrude Himmelfarb. It's all right there.
