Starting in 1958, Sherman Skolnick was a Chicago court reformer. Since 1963, he was founder/chairman, Citizen's Committee to Clean Up the Courts, disclosing certain instances of judicial and other bribery and political murders. Mr. Skolnick has passed away on May 22, 2006, but his work lives on.
"In its simplest terms, Wal-Mart is a front for the Rockefellers and the Red Chinese Secret Police. Do not the top honchos at Wal-Mart know that their cheap prices are based on production by Chinese slave labor, in camps and factories operated by the Secret Police? By the way, there has been a movement in the U.S. to pay reparations to the descendents of American slavery. Will there some day be a similar movement in mainland China, to compensate the families and descendents of slave laborers?Items that other stores sell for twenty dollars are sold by Wal-Mart for ten dollars. And Wal-Mart reportedly pays only twenty cents for the item made by slave labor. There is very little about the period of the 1980s as to Wal-Mart, when the Rockefellers were installing the Chinese in Arkansas and in American business. Who was noticing when the Rockefellers were playing their China card?"
"When you know the facts, you would understand why we designate the new airport in Northwest Arkansas, as China's Airport on U.S. soil. Look at a map of the area. Right nearby, in Bentonville, is the headquarters of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Sam's Club, and other subsidiaries. As stated in Part One, Wal-Mart reportedly depends on goods from Red China made by slave laborers under the authority of the Secret Police. Also right nearby in Springdale, Arkansas, is the headquarters of Tyson Foods, Inc., also called by some as Tyson Chickens. They dominate the U.S. chicken market and Tyson exports to more than 70 countries. As stated earlier, Tyson has reportedly been financed in part by dope trafficking. Was their visit to Red China to share chicken processing "expertise" or to reportedly make further arrangements for exports to the U.S. from Southwest China of "China White", high purity dope? "
To make this all work, Wal-Mart needs an arbitrary and corrupt federal judiciary, cowardly lawyers, and a venal see-nothing press who are more like stenographers of official government lies rather than like inquiring reporters. Big corporations prefer to litigate in Chicago's Federal courts. Why? As one blunt observer aptly stated, "Chicago has the cheapest judicial whores in the nation".
Thanks for your great article re: Wal-Mart.
ReplyDeleteMay I humbly add my two cents worth? Wal-Mart is a cancer on the US economy and one of the main reasons it is failing. Wal-Mart gets most of its product from China, which the CIA lists as having the WORLD'S LARGEST POSITIVE CURRENT ACCT BALANCE. It is no coincidence that the US 'boasts' the world's largest NEGATIVE account balance, or, balance of trade deficit. Wal-Mart's role in this is undeniable. Most of the cost of Wal-Mart product is REMOVED from the U.S. economy. Wal-Mart has, thus, helped EXPORT US manufacturing jobs primarily to China and other nations with low labor and environmental standards.
Meanwhile, the company has embraced unions in its Chinese stores and has negotiated with them to raise Chinese salaries as it tries to BUST UP union activity in the US. What is good enough for China is not good enough here at home.
Additionally, Wal-Mart pays SLAVE WAGES. Few American can live on Wal-Mart 'salaries' made even worse when they are force to 'work off the clock'.
Wal-Mart had put thousands, possibly millions of small 'main street businesses' OUT of business, thus changing the very nature of small town America. Thus Wal-Mart robs small towns of its business base as it enslaves those who might have done better working for local merchants, local businesses. But --too late! Wal-Mart has driven those folk out of business for good.
Wal-Mart is a cancer, an open sore, a BLIGHT on America.
BOYCOT WAL-MART! TAKE BACK AMERICA!
