    Those 10,000 employees are on their knees thanking Obama, hondo style... that they've been freed from the chains of employment.

    When Walmart closes down, Macy's and JCPenney are gonna suuurge.

    I'm sure this has nothing to do with e-commerce destroying brick and mortar.

    It's not like Amazon is tooling up their own delivery fleet because UPS, FedEx and the USPS can't handle the surge in deliveries.

    First Blockbuster, and now Walmart??? Obama has gone TOO FAR.
    It's actually all those regulations Obama has put on business. Clearly they only effect Walmart and not amazon.

    When a company is pressured into raising wages, then the result is layoffs.

    So you place the blame on a private company failing and closing stores on the government? Nice free market principals at its finest.
