Hell to the Nah

So we all know who Michael Moore is right? The guy that makes documentaries that show us just how messed up we really are. Well, I think I have a new project for him. His next documentary needs to be about how Wal-Mart wants to take over the world. An article was sent around about the capitalism Wal-Mart wishes to gain and it is freaking scary. They call it “Project Impact” and they talk about how they are trying to make each shopping experience easier by opening the space and lowering the shelves so customers can see into other aisles. I guess they would need to make it all visual for their customers as opposed to having signs telling what is in each aisle because the people who tend to shop there can’t read. Here are some lovely images of Wal-Mart shoppers.

This is not ok.

Scary huh? And that is nothing. There is sooo much more where that came from.

Anyway, back on track. So this article about Wal-Mart talks about how they see stores going out of business and then try to capitalizes on the products from those stores. So if they see Michael’s going out of business, they will soon have a yarn and arts and crafts aisle. If they see Best Buy going out of business, they will suddenly have an even bigger electronics aisle. Makes me sick. Wal-Mart is not allowed to have stores in some cities because they will ruin every store around. I understand they are cheap and the economy is pretty crappy still, but I would never step foot in a Wal-Mart no matter how poor I was. So Michael Moore, I am calling to you. Please show America how horrible this place is. If you need a camera woman, I can definitely help out. So, any thoughts? Am I crazy here?

  1. I'm going to be a Wal-Mart shopper for Halloween. That way I can double as another cast member of Dog the Bounty Hunter if I come across anyone who will be offended by my social commentary costume ...

  2. Didn't Moore already do a Wal-mart documentary?

  3. You're right it was Robert Greenwald, he did Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price.
