Too bad almost no one in the US will be able to afford it.

I thought this was a posting to "Idiots of Facebook" at first. Guess I'm the idiot

If they want to stop non-whites from becoming the majority, then why oppose abortion and birth control? All the non-white people already here will have more kids too. Do they not understand that?

Tater tots

Mustard is the classier option

If you just make that substitution all the times he's said "We're going to be winning so much" it makes far more sense. "You'll be tired of all the whining we're going to do" is far more accurate

Ah. I see now. You're a tankie. Well that explains why you're an obtuse moron. Blocking you now

They didn't "convince" me of that. I've looked at their earnings report and could see that their profits are roughly the same as their membership revenue. They convinced me to buy a membership by having lower prices than other retailers so I buy most of my dry goods, electronics, and other sundry goods from them

My wife and I saw how much we were spending there annually and realized that an executive membership would pay for our annual fees in the rebate we'd get each year, so it made the membership essentially free. I'm not a sucker who got tricked into some "scheme". I'm maximizing my purchase power, you dolt.

Employee benefits and wages, mostly. The membership fees are the primary profit of Costco. Without that wages would go down, and prices would rise. You do know that businesses need to turn a profit to stay in business, right?

The fee might be an upfront cost, and if you don't buy enough goods during the year it may not be worth it, but I can tell you from my experience of just my wife and I being empty nesters, we have an "Executive" membership which costs even more than a regular membership (gasp!)with the added benefit of getting a small percentage of our annual spending coming back to us as essentially a gift certificate. That gift certificate pays for our membership, so, yeah, it's worth it.

I guess you don't know how wholesale club stores work, eh?

That's literally their argument against him. SoCiaLIsM!

Looks like the kids are doing the hugging, and he's just basking in the pure joy of it

I really don't understand why sex workers sell sex in places it's illegal, rather than selling condoms at the same price then let their customers try it out for free

I'd rather they arrest the pimps and sex traffickers who exploit women and force them into it, but that's just me

Not to mention that then it's up to someone in power to decide what "misinformation" is

Those kids will have trust issues for life

Hmm. I guess this is a downside to having all your citizens spend time in the military
