Mother Jones is a highly questionable publication, IMO, and I would not necessarily trust this storyline as far as I could throw a ‘59 Cadillac by the tailfin.

IF the word “exclusively” was omitted from the Wal-Mart reference, the story is BOGUS!
The Am-ex story is real but I believe the Walmart inclusion is speculation and silly because so many shop there.
The real establishments that resulted in lower credit limits included marriage counselors and pawn shops.
Attacking WalMart is a national pasttime for the dims.
Follow the link above to the blog entry and you'll find the "in December" embedded link which leads you to the long and comprehensive NYT article, which has numerous embedded links
Mother Jones is a communist propaganda rag,
and they hate Walmart,
and I wouldn’t doubt if they have a chip on their shoulder about Amex.
