Pretty funny stuff. Interesting business practices and who they give political money to.

Nah, i was just thinking to myself from what i've read and seen. Wal-Mart doesn't pay that well or give good benefits( if at all), been busted for illegals, sweatshops, uses city monies, takes more than it gives, the CEO was making $300,000 a week during 2003, looks at the bottom line which is the stock market and profit while giving mostly to the Republican party.
Costco pays well, has good benefits (doesn't drain public services and gives money to private insurance), has one of the lowest turnovers in retail, pisses off Wall Street because they could earn a lot more by taking care of their employees less, the CEO makes 350,000 a year (granted he is worth over 100 million in stock) and has folding tables for his desk and they give to the Dems.

Just interesting.
