    Smart by Walmart to announce a bonus while simultaneously laying off thousands of workers. Well played Walmart, well played.

    Walmart is the only company that can compete. They have the infrastructure in place and are trying to find creative ways but it will be tough.

    Seems part of this closure decision is a shift to e commerce.

    Rest likely expired tax incentives and real estate appreciation

    Wal-Mart execs and shareholder get billion dollar tax cut forever

    While the workers get $400 once.

    Trickledown effect at it's best.

    Tax breaks were a bait and switch.

    Is the swamp drained yet?

    It never stopped working, supply side economics is about the most agreed upon things in America, but the left is more interested in making a group they don't like worse off to make a group they do like better off.

    Bait and switch ......... voo doo economics.

    This coming November, I will remember that Rethugs included a clause damaging to the ACA which will cost us more for insurance than we will receive from the "tax breaks."
