When Evil fights Evil ...

Only the good guys can win. Evil in this case is Wal-Mart -- which I consider an evil organization -- and Evil is also the Record Companies that steal from your wallet while they sue you for your spare change. Seems like Wal-Mart's "everyday low price" mantra is even affecting the music industry. Wal-Mart wishes to sell sub-$10 CDs, but the record companies have always resisted. Last year, Wal-Mart got the record companies to deliver some CDs to their $9.72 program. Wal-Mart liked it. Liked it so much, that they want it for all the CDs they sell. Wal-Mart if now the largest retail peddler of the record companies smut -- selling 1 in 5 of their CDs -- it has clout. Will the record companies concede? Wal-Mart also has a growing online music business ... ah, what sweet entertainment when evil fights evil ...

    Andy,

    Your comments on Wal-Mart are valid. Yet, unfortunately, American Society is largely apathetic and is seemingly only concerned about their current needs, and not give thought to long-term ramifications. Wal-Mart is the supplier, and America is the consumer. America can only blame themselves for any adverse effects brought about long-term by shopping at Wal-Mart. Also sad, Sam Walton, when he was alive, prided himself in selling everything made in America.
    Now that he is gone, looks like pride in American made products is gone!

Civil disobedience is called for

Image
In an act of desperation, Tim DeCristopher chose civil disobedience to disrupt the bidding process that saw 149,000 acres of public land leased off to oil companies in Utah. The lease of the land to oil companies, to allow drilling, has been contested by many who wish to preserve the pristine land, located near Arches National Park, the White River, the greater Desolation Canyon region, Labyrinth Canyon, the benches east of Canyonlands National Park, Nine Mile Canyon, the Book Cliffs and the Deep Creek Mountains. It is one of the final sell-off by the dying Bush administration. DeCristopher showed at the auction, registered as a bidder, and started bidding -- and winning -- with no intention of purchasing or paying for the auctions he won. Way to go dude! You're a hero!
