Seriously? Everyone does not hate Walmart. Are you interested in a proper discussion on the subject or are you just going to exaggerate statistics, because if it's the latter I'd rather know now.

Yeah, nobody hates walmart.

Nobody at all.

Except, maybe, the 47,000 people who joine an "I hate walmart" facebook page.

Even their own employees hate walmart. Have you seen the attempts of Walmart employees to unionize and/or strike? I have and they're pissed.

But it isn't just Walmart. The banking industry made a lot of enemies with their repeated bad loans and, yet, they're still making money, hand over fist.

Look at Chik-fil-a. Over half the nation consistantly supports same sex marriage now, but their business has been closely associated with homophobia. Yet, their business is doing well since then.

On the flip side of that coin, look at the Baptists and their Disney boycott from the late 90's. Disney sure suffered from that, didn't they?

Nike is famous for hiring sweatshop employees to make a $200 pair of sneakers and there are a lot of people pissed about it. Guess what? Nike is still going strong.

When was the last time a company did something objectionable enough for people to stand up and actually do something about them? I sure haven't seen it.
I live on facebook. Come see me there. http://www.facebook.com/tara.rizzatto
