Is Walmart the future?


I never really paid much attention to the design of the Walmart stores.
Walmart stores tend to eat other small stores alive, are they competing to be the
supplier of the worlds everyday goods? Plus what we see in Walmart is crazy, people come into the store dressed like they just rolled outta bed. (customer zombies) I can't believe some of the things I have seen. Are we this careless To walk around in night wear no sense of pride in your appearance. This is very concerning as we as a people have become engulfed in things. And not the true spiritual things of God which are given freely. All the things of this world will pass away. For temporary pleasures people sell their souls for fortune and fame. They come with a price that you really can't pay. Back to Walmart, pay close attention to these mega stores such as Sam's club Bj's wholesale warehouse's Costco. They feed into the mind state of corporations being providers of all.
Resist being a customer zombie. Understanding the corporations that control major goods and supplies that we as people require and desire are now being serviced to us by corporations of the same names everywhere. Walmarts and other big box stores are swallowing small mom and pop stores up in our communities. Economy of the common man has been affected. Until we can understand the stock market and how money truly works, we will be many steps  behind the corporations.

Consumers-consume buy eat collect stockpile goods. 

Producers-produce grow create sell
Receive bountifully, opportunist, generators

We as a people need to find the healthy balance between the two.
So not being a mindless store zombie searching for things and spending all of your hard earned monies on every and anything you think you need. Become an innovator a producer of the things you need.  A wise woman once told me that if you have a patch of land you must plant a garden and grow some of your food. Now I'm not saying that you have to be completely an island because no man is.
But if you are a producer of certain things, things that are useful to others
Cooperatively we can build each other up to be sustainable. Self sustaining one another as in the kwanza spirit of cooperative economics. Supporting private projects for community based support systems. We can shift to another sense of consciousness one that will support people in need and give them purpose. A drive to create, dream and innovate new ideas into privately owned businesses. Which can then compete with these box stores. Through lower dependence on them. Because I believe it is through our giving that we will break the chains of spiritual, mental, fiscal and physical dependacy to a economy that was meant to leave you behind and dependant. Understanding that God is the provider to us all and that he is a producer of all good things. As God moves through us all it is through his giving that we give and receive his blessings.
Let God's light shine
Be blessed Good people!
Dream, think, innovate and create!
