Just so much bullshit
Welcome to the time of year when the exact same people that complained about the economy and their savings accounts, spend BILLIONS on shit nobody wants or needs..

1 in 10 Americans are stupid
Retail analysts were expecting 33 million Americans to shop on Black Friday, which, due to all of the store openings on Thanksgiving Day, is now really Black Thursday.
Many claimed their early shopping was for the savings, like the gentlemen in this article who supposedly bought a 60 inch LED TV for $400 and "saved" $800 from its regular price of $1200. Actually, anyway you look at it, he saved nothing--zip, zero, nada, zilch. He stood in line for hours, gave up a holdiday meal with his family, and now has $400 less to his name for a TV that will be outdated in less than five years.
Let's see that scoreboard: Store: +$400; Customer: -$400.
Nowhere in the calculation do you see a +$800 for the Customer. It's a mirage.
But it sure does wonders for the retailers of America's bottom lines.

A little good news
You really have to admire the courage of the people who walked out of their jobs at Wal-Mart on one of the busiest days of the retail year, Black Friday--to fight for a better standard of living for all of their co-workers, and maybe even the poor saps at Target and Kmart who don't have it any better. Workers are little more than rabbit turds to the powers that be that run Wal-Mart (and Target and Kmart), and it takes a world of hope to fight back against such callous disregard for the welfare of one's own.
It's a lot like one man fighting a swarm of killer bees with a flyswatter, but as a wise man (Dave Edmunds) once wrote, from small things mama, big things one day come.
