JUNK PRODUCTS AT WAL-MART?—

Several times recently I have opened an undamaged box of Nabisco Honey Maid Grahams bought at Wal-Mart only to find the product in the individual packages inside the box, heavily damaged.

It appeared as if the crackers had been partially crushed after being sealed in their individual plastic packaging—then placed in the boxes consumers find on store shelves.

Wal-Mart has a long history of squeezing their vendors to the point of near unprofitability so the retail giant can achieve price dominance in the marketplace.

A clever manufacturer could easily attempt to recoup some of that profit by placing damaged, and otherwise unsaleable product, in an undamaged container and shipping it to Wal-Mart for retail sale.

I have no way of testing my observation, but, I have alternated purchases of this product from the local grocer and never experienced the same problem there.

Coincidence? Possibly.


IMMIGRATION PROBLEMS—

The following comment on this subject was posted on a forum I visit:

“Ask a Native American what happens when you don’t control immigration.”

Ponder that for a moment.
