I don't know whether it's because it's Fox News or whether it's just your typical business show, but just in one minute of watching the news, I heard-

-It's not WalMart's fault they're hiring illegal immigrants to work there for below minimum wages, it's the Global Economy. See, the Global Economy says try and find the lowest paid workers as possible and that's what WalMart did. In fact, we should praise WalMart for not only keeping those jobs in America but for being so clever to figure out how to be competitive. So bully for WalMart (of course, we should do everything to keep those Mexican's from working in the country and take away all their benefits because they take jobs away from Americans, although, on the other hand, they are a pretty good way to constantly scare Whitey into voting Republican.)

-WalMart's future is looking up because they've only begun to expand into Mexico and China and it'll only be a few more years before they take over those countries too!

-And, of course, the economy is doing great (except, of course, for all the unemployed people or all the recently laid-off people or all the uninsured people, but who cares about them, they're all poor!)

I think there should be a news show called "Bitch Slap." It would, of course, be hosted by me. In the show, anyone who says something completely ridiculous, gets bitch slapped. It's kind of like the "O'Reilly Factor" except not hosted by a pompous blowhard. I swear, sometimes I think it's like the entire country is speaking a different language from me because absolutely nothing anyone says makes sense anymore.
