Why is it that they flock to that store? Is it caused by the low pricing? Or do you think they are aliens from a differant world and they congregate there to socialize and get recharged?

It is a real amazing thing! I think it has to do with socializing and a cultural thing! Many of them were raised going there and it is just a continuation of what they were taught when being raised! I don't understand it because when I spend our money`I do not go somewhere that I will be treated rudely, run over by the crowds and treated like dirt! I am just amazed that people flock there in droves and continue to be mistreated! Amazing!!

I think you've got the right idea here. I can recall, back in the 80's/90's hearing, for the first time, about the "snow birds" from the north east, heading south to Florida in the winter time in their motor homes. Also many others who retire and head for a warmer climate to live in, also in motor homes. It created a situation where people couldn't find a place, close to I-75 to park overnight and make dinner, sleep and get a early start the next morning. The freeway rest stops wouldn't allow them to stay there and so they started parking wherever they could and the people who owned the property they parked on got irritated about it and complained to the local PD. As this issue got more attention, WM made a genius marketing decision. They announced that since they had many stores very close to the I-75 exits they would welcome all these motor homes, campers and so on to legally park in their parking lots overnight. It went over huge and soon people began meeting each other and they would plan each year to convoy down to Florida so, WM has all these customers staying in their hotel parking lot free of charge. Usually they go in the store to shop around and pick up breakfast and dinner food to make back in the motor home. It's really been quite successful because the people are very grateful for WM providing a "FREE" overnight spot where they rendevous with their friends.

A little insight about the founder of walmart. the full article can be found at the Executive Intelligance Review website. This article appears in the January 23, 2004 issue of Executive Intelligence Review. Wal-Mart's Walton Family: The Beasts of Bentonville by Richard Freeman [Note: Figures in this article are available to paying subscribers to Electronic Intelligence Weekly.]
The Walton family, which founded and today controls Wal-Mart, lives on blood money. Operating jointly with the City of London-Wall Street bankers, it became the world's wealthiest family by decimating the U.S. and world physical economies, and by applying ferocious austerity, driving wages and living standards beneath the level needed for existence. Forbes magazine places the worth of the family at greater than $100 billion.
The threat posed by the Waltons is not merely in the size of their fortune. Older monied families such as the Mellons, Rockefellers, and the corrupted Ford family fortunes have been more powerful politically and financially, as have also been the much smaller family nest-eggs of George Soros and Michael Steinhardt. But the danger today is that the Waltons, with such a storehouse of wealth available to them, will use it, for one thing, to build even more Wal-Mart stores, with even more devastating effects on the world economy! But not only that:
The Waltons are using their enormous leverage to carefully construct a banking empire, under tight family control.
They are bankrolling a vast neo-conservative political network. For example, John Walton, who is worth more than $20 billion himself, was the largest single individual contributor to Gov. Jeb Bush in the 2002 Florida gubernatorial race.
They are the principal financial force in the effort to privatize the public school system, through school vouchers, which would wreck public education. They would create a School-Mart. Democratic Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche has launched a national and international boycott of Wal-Mart, to expose and shut down the company. LaRouche has shown that under Wal-Mart's policy of demanding that its suppliers supply goods to Wal-Mart at ridiculously low prices, the only way the suppliers can accomplish this is to shut down production in the United States, and ship it to sweatshop facilities overseas, which has caused the exodus of 1.5 million U.S. manufacturing jobs. Wal-Mart pays its workers below subsistence wages, and destroys communities. This is applied as a leading edge of a Roman Imperial-type policy, in which the American physical economy, no longer able to reproduce its own existence, sucks in a huge volume of imported goods from around the world. The more the United States feeds its import addiction, the more that destroys the U.S. physical economy, while driving the current account deficit to new and dangerous heights.
The campaign of LaRouche and , is drawing blood. Wal-Mart's national spokesperson, Mona Williams, lashed out on Nov. 28, 2003, "There's definitely a negative buzz out there. A lot of folks have started taking shots at us." One magazine noted the shift: "Wal-Mart kicked off the year in the media as the nation's 'most-admired company,' but it looks like it will wrap up 2003 as the 'Beast of Bentonville' " (Bentonville, Arkansas is Wal-Mart's headquarters). Last Christmas, Wal-Mart registered very slim sales growth, partly due to the faltering economy, but partly due to what the media is now highlighting as a Wal-Mart "image problem." In the retail industry, if sales are not rising year on year, there is a problem.
To counterattack, Wal-Mart's officers, led by chairman Rob Walton, made a strategic decision to bring out their ultimate weapon—the Sam Walton myth—in the hope that this will dazzle and disarm people. The myth has two components. First, Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton (1918-92) is portrayed as a folksy, ol' country boy, concerned about the welfare of his workers. According to this myth, Sam drove around in a pick-up truck, when he could have been chauffeured in a limousine. Mr. Sam, as he liked his underlings to call him, didn't care a hoot about money, but only about following his dream.
The second part of the myth is that Mr. Sam disdained Wall Street, building his company through his own native genius and hard work.
By extension, this myth is stretched to cover the rest of the Walton clan. They are a chip off the block of ol' Mr. Sam. They use their money to help people. Their savage amassing of a $100 billion fortune hasn't changed them; they're just like you and me.
No one should be dazzled by this myth. The truth is that Wal-Mart made its money by crushing its employees, its competitors, its suppliers, and foreign nations. It grew only through the aid and massive funding of Wall Street, which admires Wal-Mart as the paradigm of what it wants to achieve in a post-industrial society. Two examples of this—the 1970 financing when, Wal-Mart went public to pay off its debts; and the "Wal-Mart decade" (actually 1990 to 2002), when Wal-Mart grew to unprecedented size—make the point.

Not too many folks know the history of WM but I have a friend that has had two daughters rise in the ranks of WM. I know more than I ever want to know about any corporate entity because of the knowledge they shared with me and the legal problems I had to help them address. WM is not your friend unless it is you spending your money in their stores! Other than that you are just in their way and mean nothing to them!

If I ever got to the point where I had accumulated real money, I would share it with the kids rather than waiting until wifey and I are gone. They need the help now while raising their kids and all the expenses of new homes, cars, and school for the kids. Just do not understand the greed thing!

I dont understand it either. I mean what is enough? Do you need every dollar out their? I would first of all buy you and VV all the Glocks that would be in your respective gun shops. Freedom, I would buy all the 1911's at his local shop, and a ten year supply of bullets. Ooooh! and a Rossi lever action that he is coveting but can not find. GGG

That should make him happy, I hope. A while back he posted that after Christmas he wanted to get it, and after Christmas he was saying he couldn't find one. Something like they weren't available in the U.S. yet.

Well he is finishing up the interviews and I still have another 30 minutes or so to kill!! He is much more patient than I am!!! I am still in shock over this deal. Totally out of place!! I stood on the platform with the Tiffany's backdrop next to the Lombardi trophy with him and the camera flashes and news media going crazy! I know everyone there was saying who the heck is that standing on the podium with him!!! Oh well, makes them wonder cause nobody else there knew me. Bill Lively, head of the SB Committee, was on the stage at one time with the two of us and got some pictures of that. Thomas O’Rourke, VP of Tiffany's and Drew were standing there on each side of me and more flashes going crazy. Met the mayor of Fort Worth and his wife, Mike Moncrief. I have liked him for years and he is one great guy. First time I ever stood next to him. I also met the mayor of Arlington, Robert Cluck! That is where Jerry's World is located, Arlington, TX!!! Clarice Tinsley of FOX covered the unveiling of the trophy and there will be film for it all over FOX for the next few days as the SB gets closer!! Like I said, I am still in awe at the stuff that has happened this afternoon and evening and in about 15 minutes, Drew and wifey and I will depart and go to Lawry's for some prime rib!!! I will be on cloud 9 for the next month!!! Great times to share and remember for a lifetime!!!
