Boycott all of Wal-Mart's products that ARE NOT MADE or GROWN IN THE USA.

Wal-Mart still has some products that are USA. Investigate and check, originally Wal-Mart was only suppose to carry products made in the USA, but greed got to be more profitable.

Andy:

I can understand boycotting Wal-Mart, but boycotting the motherjones blog doesn't make sense.

No. Do not boycott motherjones blog. Motherjones Blog is one of the better places for the 70% MAJORITY COMMON POPULATION to voice their political opinion. Not too many places these days where the 70% MAJORITY COMMON POPULATION can talk politically.

When only 30% of the population are allowed to voice their opinion, the political teeter-totter gets out of balance; so God bless whoever started and has kept the motherjones blog open.

Yes we should put WalMart out of business. WalMart has a whole list of offences, any one of which is reason enough to put them out of business. Chinese goods, pollution, congested ports, sexism, racism, slave labor... It's a long list. Then we can start on the malls, fast food and quick stop stores.
