America: Land of Cheap Goods

I see where Kmart has purchased Sears. Somehow, this seems wrong. All I can hear is Bette Midler in the movie Ruthless People. She is kidnapped and ransom is reduced. Bette’s comment, “I’ve been marked down! I was kidnapped by Kmart. (sob)!” How does Sears feel? And does anyone know what happened to Roebuck?

I had no idea that Kmart was big enough to buy Sears. I also did not realize that Kmart was a descendant of “SS Kresge”. What an empire of crap. Will Dollar General buy out JC Penney? Will Odd Lots purchase Nordstroms? I can see WalMart buying out The May Company.

Long live crap!
