In Positive Economic Sign, Walmart Customers Killing Each Other to Buy ****
Pepper Spraying, Homicide Bullish Indicators, Economists Say

MINNEAPOLIS (The Borowitz Report) – In what economists are hailing as a
clear sign of economic recovery, Walmart customers across the USA jammed
into stores on Black Friday, sometimes killing each other to buy useless
****.

“We have been looking for evidence that the economy is on the mend,”
said Davis Logsdon, chairman of the economics department at the
University of Minnesota. “When people resort to homicide to buy a
Blu-ray player, that is very, very good news indeed.”

Mr. Logsdon said he was “impressed” by the lengths to which some Walmart
customers were going to grab coveted sale items: “They’re using tactics
we usually associate with the UC-Davis police.”

With many customers using pepper spray and other weapons to get a
shopping advantage, however, Mr. Logsdon advised Americans not to enter
a Walmart unarmed.

“If you want to get your hands on a doorbuster, you’d better have a
firearm,” he said. “Fortunately, Walmart is offering several great
doorbusters on firearms.”

Walmart and other retailers’ decision to commence their Black Friday
sales a day early carries with it an added benefit for consumers, he
noted: “Now, Americans will be able to declare bankruptcy one day earlier.”

All in all, Dr. Logsdon said that the increased violence and mayhem at
retail outlets across the country was “a testament to the greatness of
the American consumer.”

“Egyptians risk their lives for new government,” he said. “Americans
bravely do the same for new flat screens.”

I am not the only one that sees that we use to have many many stores,
some large some small. No one except maybe NYC experienced this kind of
thing. Now we have one or two or three giant Retailers of Chinese junk.
Everybody piles in there to get theirs before it is all gone.
The degradation of American Society has global monopoly as one key
factor in recreating the European idea, of socialization or herds.

Yep, everyone a debt-tax slave. You can vote for an election ballot
others choose for you but the house always wins. You can have any
liberty you want but the most important one, economic liberty. If you
have it, someone will use government to steal it.

America, home to the debt-tax slave. No economic liberty allowed for 20
years, like Russia, Argentina, Iceland...a economic wasteland of just
more debt.

Argentina appears to have done quite well in their multi decade recovery
as has Russia.

The most important product sold by WalMart is *not* made in China!

Scroll carefully over the bag...and send an apology to WalMart.
