"an important part of the economy" eh? -- as far as I can see we have our current state of chaos in this country thanks to the billionaires. They hoard their money, support exploitation of all kinds, grift and break things. They brought us this current disaster, under the most extremist government ever to rule the nation. They bought the administration, they twisted minds.

For decades they've had us fighting and scrambling for everything that we have a right to-- health care, public schools, retirement funds, decent wages, public health, clean environments, -- ie. responsible government. Mass transit also--if you want people to come into the office, fund mass transit! This is NO way to run a country that calls itself a democracy. Vulture capitalism at it's unimaginable worst. We are living the nightmare.

Sorry but I'm not impressed with a billionaire heiress' damage control efforts. Will that ad really make any difference considering where it comes from? Of course I agree with the good words--but still it seems like a clever ad for Walmart. Does she do anything else to help the current situation? Walmart does not have a good track record. What else does she invest in that matters?

Keep on boycotting. This ad means it's working!
