When is the average over worked, underappreciated, risk-laden, frightened American family going to wake up and notice that they're working for people they've never met and who laugh at them for their stupidity.

Walmart gives out US taxpayer funded food stamp applications along with their job applications. They dump $86 million in healthcare costs (not to mention tax breaks, infrastructure improvements and financial risk) onto California alone.

Now the airlines, after receiving corporate welfare after 911, want to dump other liabilities onto the US family? After hobbling on for decades, these overstuffed companies are finally being laid low by the increased price of...oil.

It's just too stupid for words.
