Jib Jab clips are always so funny - and pointed! This one reminds me that there was an anti-Wal-Mart documentary that came out in the past few years - anyone remember the name of it? It’s worth watching, even if you’re already convinced of the evils of the big W.
After watching this clip w/ me this morning, my 9 yr old son has been singing the song over & over, and it’s been a chance to talk w/ him about big chains like this one. (He has, thankfully, substituted “junk” for “crap” in his nonstop singing of this song, after I requested early on that he not sing/say “crap” quite so much - so my parenting license isn’t taken away!)
Yes! It was great to see you, Benjamin, and Megan, and to meet you, Rachel! It would have been nice to have a chance to talk more with Rachel - maybe next time?

The WalMart movie was called “The High Cost of Low Prices.” I haven’t seen it yet myself.
