I don't disagree with a word you say. They've been The Devil for half my life. A number of pundits have pointed out that more than half of the new jobs these days are being filled by people who weren't "unemployed" they were "discouraged workers." It's entirely possible that Walmart has decided it takes an extra $2 to get someone who's given up on work to put on a blue vest.
