The epitome of what’s wrong with America - Wal Mart now worth a TRILLION dollars.

We are a nation of mouthbreathers. Literally the WORST company on earth, with the worst customers on earth, is now the most valuable company on earth.


I hate this country and the people in it so much I think my head is going explode one day.


It’s an a-hole move to be mad at the valuation of Walmart and blame the poor people who shop there.

Not sure what the grocery prices are at our local WalMart but I bet they're more affordable than Harris Teeter or Wegmans. People need to eat, and WalMart is serving a need, especially now.



I just $8.00 for a pound of ground beef at Wegman's.

I sometimes shop at Walmart and I am a very nice person. Prices on some items that I use are $2/$3 cheaper at Walmart than at local grocery stores.


Well, as long as you save $2 anything goes!


DP. Do you not understand that people are struggling to pay their basic bills? You mock someone trying to save $2, but an awful lot of people literally can’t afford their groceries if they don’t save $2 here, and 40 cents there, and $1 there.

That whole process of eggs thing has become a joke, but it’s not merely a joke. Things are really, really hard for a lot of people.

You want to criticize Walmart’s anti-union, anti-competitive practices? Have at it. But to dismiss anyone who is trying to save money in 2026 —- when more than half of American families are struggling to afford groceries, 4 out of 5 food assistance programs are stretched beyond capacity — is wild. You really sound clueless.



It is a vicious cycle ostensibly created BY the Walmarts of the country.

It all goes to show we
1.) need to bolster worker protections back up and pay living wages, and
2.) we need to tax big corporations and the billionaires enriched by them a bit more.
That much is crystal clear.

PP. Yes.

I am simply saying we must differentiate between the corporation and the human beings who rely on the corporation.

I think OPs statement about the customers is the same mentality that MAGA uses about immigrants. She's got the same attitude that somehow they're "less than" and deserve bad things. It's not okay. There's a big wide world out there that depends on Walmart and stores like Dollar General.

We also need to break up the giant monopolies that are driving the prices of essential goods so high.

I’m with you, OP. Every day it becomes more and more obvious that America was founded by the incompetent morons who simply couldn’t hack it in Europe.

We’re not exactly the best nor the brightest. My fellow Americans make me sick.


Why are you here? Go to Europe. Get out.



Oh I’m on my way, fool. Enjoy this self-inflicted $hitshow, and sorry Europe has no use for your sorry @$$.

But seriously, thanks for destabilizing the entire g-oddam Western World AND ruining the environment for ALL of our kids and grandkids. You really owned us libs, hur dur.


+1, leaving for Europe soon as well. Just weighing my options right now about the best country to move to.

Can’t wait to leave this dumpster fire and all you fools behind. F Trump. F America. F all of you who won’t do something to stop him. I hope you all starve and die. I’ll be LMAO from Portugal or Monaco or Corsica. Bye Felicia!

Walmart customers are scum. Filth. They elected Trump. They are trash. And yes, they deserve whatever bad things happen to them. Every tornado that hits their trailer park, every gram of meth they snort, every OD, every job lost. Rural America can eff off and die.

The flaw in your idea is that people don’t just up and die just because you want them to and when you wish for their suffering and death then they surely stop caring one iota about YOU and your family and they are probably willing to fight you to the death over their own survival. All you are accomplishing with your rhetoric is war and violence that harms us all. That’s why peace is actually more difficult than war and also more noble.

WTH is wrong with you?

Maybe get some help.


Sure you are pissed that Walmart is with 1 trillion.

But think about this.


How many people does Walmart employ? Yeah, they have many low paid store workers. But they also have well paid accountants, managers, lawyers, marketing people. Some surely make 100-200k and support their families. What about all the truck drivers that have dependable jobs and loads from Walmart? How about people in rural areas that depend on Walmart for cheap food and groceries that they could not afford from more expensive stores.


So maybe look at the big picture on how many people Walmart employs and how many families depend on Walmart for their livelihood.


Interesting how you glossed over those "low paid store workers" which would be the bulk of the employees.

Are you in the Epstein files? You display the same sort of ethos as those that consorted with him.

DP and I agree with you. Walmart sucks. Their business model is profitable but their practices hurt a lot of regular people.

There is no perfect system and capitalism certainly isn't one. Too many bad actors in the world. That is why we do need some government regulation in a capitalist system. Pure capitalism will always hurt those at the bottom.

I also agree with many PPs that it is frustrating as f*ck that these same people vote for the GOP which will only help the Walmarts of the world and never themselves.

To be fair the democrats were in power for a long time during the same period that Walmart was hollowing out the small towns and creating the monopoly in the first place. Offshoring was never slowed during Clinton and Obama so why would they think that democrats care about their economic well being?
