One more reason to shit on walmart

[Nitro Express]

It's interesting that your view of demographics is through the lens of walmart...

I always maintained you could judge a neighborhood by what kind of freaks were in the grocery store at night. If the grocery store has an armed guard you best be looking some where else to live.

Damn. They sell the 40's cheap at Wall-Mart so you can pour one in each hand on them juicy twerking cock mitts.

The last time I was in Russia I was checking out some of their log home construction. There was one home in Irkutsk that had just been built that had stained glass windows in it. It was pretty cool. Some of the houses have a lot of scroll work on them. There's a lot of construction going on in Russia right now. They are even cleaning the logs on some of the old log homes and buildings. More of the oil and gas money is staying home and they are putting it to use building new infrastructure and fixing up the old stuff.

The US is basically the piggy bank for the western central banking industry and we provide the big stick so they can keep the rest of the world in line. Everyone knows it. It's why our infrastructure is falling apart here. The wealth is either being stolen and sent overseas or it's going into the war machine. Now they are trying to sucker us in on more war. Dick Cheney is even out on the war promotion circuit now. Are we dumb enough to fall for it again?

Finally a post about banking...

Or Russia...

You could become a journalist there, they are running out...
