i know a former casino site that needs occupancy.
but there’s also the spot near the Arena where the oft rumored new Giant Eagle or new Whole Foods was slated. It’s near a lot of new rental properties and close to all the housing in VV and HW.
there’s also a lot of property along Spring east of 4th, which would service the area you talk about + the new Edwards community.
but I don’t know if they’re talking CBD in their plans for Chicago. the one in the article referenced is on Chicago’s south side. So should we be talking about somewhere on Cleveland Ave in MG, or down on Parsons, or the Buster Douglas property on Main?

lol @ you saying someone has anger issues.
double lol @ you then calling someone a prick.
It is not bitching. These are real concerns. You are the one who brought up cancer cause by an Ohio plant and I am glad you did. The article from the Guardian concerning Chinese cancer villages is quite the eye opener. And no, can’t say that all of the products go to WM. But they have tremendous power and influence over these things being by far the world’s largest and richest retailer. Other companies then mimmick their practices in order to stay competitve.
Just because life gave you lumps doesn’t make your opinion more important than others.
Reminds me of a guy who used to post here who felt anyone who had more money than him should have their rights taken away.
Supply and demand determines wage. If people refused to work at Walmart for the wage offered; Walmart would have to pay a higher wage to employ them.
So it’s really the people who work at Walmarts fault.
So wait…I just want to get you on this…
Other companies (NOT Wal-mart) buying items made in China that have carcinogens in them (which should have never been imported to begin with)…is still the fault of Wal-mart because those companies are trying to be like them.
Yeah, I can’t believe I questioned your factual arguments…
And what exactly do you contribute to society? A modeling agency that contributes to the ideal of what a women should look like? Anoxeria and bullimia and depression are not things that I would be proud of
Yeah, I’ll get right on addressing my anger issues…thanks for the tip!
That is exactly right – no one should care. The location of where I live and what I ate for breakfast on a certain day means nothing in this conversation. It was not brought up by me.
It is not the workers at WM faults when they are they only game in town based upon their aggressive policies.
Sadly this great site produces such pathetic posts by sycophants. Friends who back each other up with snide comments by trying to be witty and cool. Continue to contribute to a suckier future by your ill-advised choices. Good for you. You are too cool to care.
As opposed to everyone falling all over themselves to tell you how right you are?

Riiiiiight … Core and I have never disagreed …
In light of the ‘wal-mart is the source of all evil’ vibe, this deserves a bump.
LetÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s start with Wal-Mart. Obviously, a business can save money by finding ways to spend less while maintaining sales. This is what Wal-Mart did with fuel costs, which the company reduced by $26 million per year simply by changing the way it managed its enormous truck fleet. Instead of running a truckÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s engine all night to heat or cool the cab during mandatory 10-hour rest stops, the company installed small auxiliary power units to do the job. In addition to lowering fuel costs, the move eliminated the carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to taking 18,300 passenger vehicles off the road.
Wal-Mart is also working to double the fuel efficiency of its truck fleet by 2015, thereby saving more than $200 million a year at the pump. Among the efficient prototypes now being tested are trucks that burn biofuels generated from waste grease at Wal-MartÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s delis. Similarly, as the countryÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s biggest private user of electricity, Wal-Mart is saving money by decreasing store energy use.
Another Wal-Mart example involves lowering costs associated with packaging materials. Wal-Mart now sells only concentrated liquid laundry detergents in North America, which has reduced the size of packaging by up to 50 percent. Wal-Mart stores also have machines called bailers that recycle plastics that once would have been discarded. Wal-MartÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s eventual goal is to end up with no packaging waste.
One last Wal-Mart example shows how a company can save money in the long run by buying from sustainably managed sources. Because most wild fisheries are managed unsustainably, prices for Chilean sea bass and Atlantic tuna have been soaring. To my pleasant astonishment, in 2006 Wal-Mart decided to switch, within five years, all its purchases of wild-caught seafood to fisheries certified as sustainable.
I am not sure if you are being facetious, but yes Walmart basically allows you to test drive anything

Actually, Klub, I rather like my future, thank you very much.
and I’ll take it over the one you are suggesting any day.
