OK, I'm guessing the libs will say that the pay for the 100 jobs created don't even equal the pay of the 50 lost. Anybody have an insight on that?

Percentile 10% 25% 50% Median) 75% 90%
Hourly Wage $6.38 $7.46 $9.03 $12.23 $17.76
Annual Wage $13,270 $15,520 $18,790 $25,430 $36,940

You'd have to compare Walmart's numbers to these...

I suddenly found myself unable to enter other stores like K-Mart, Target, Sears, etc. It was like some kind of voodoo curse. As soon as I'd pull in the parking lot I'd hear these voices in my head repeating this mantra over and over, "Waaallly, Waaallly, save money, Waaallly, Waaallly." 'bout scared the begeebebers outta me!

So, Bush 1 was right! There ARE voodoo economics!

many people wanted to set their own working hours - no week ends etc.

A perfectly good reason for not hiring them, imo.

If I understand this, you've given me the national mean for retail sales persons and I would need to find out what Walmart pays?

Love your tag line.
