    I read that each Wal-Mart employee in the US receives $4,400 of government "entitlements".

    My wife texted me this morning and said there was a brawl going on as she exited a store this morning at 3:00am. I really hate that she goes out all night shopping. It's dangerous. I would like to see some kind of regulation that stores who are participating in black Friday sales, can't open their doors until 6:00am Friday morning. I'm not a fan of government telling people what that can and can't do, I just think it's a safety issue.

    All stores should be closed on major holidays, close at noon Saturday and closed on Sunday. This will reduce crime and make our society a nicer place.
    Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not....

    Closed on Major holidays - sure
    Close at noon on Saturday - no
    Closed on Sunday - no

    Ever visit any other countries? They don't have the 24hr business mentality that we have and they get along fine. I live near Amish country where tourists come to spend their money on fine handmade products and cheapo trinkets, they close early and don't open on Sundays and they do just fine.
    I love Mitch Hedberg's thing about this.... "I walked past a dry cleaning place at 3 in the morning, and the sign read, sorry, we're closed. Dude, you don't have to be sorry. It's 3am, and you're a dry cleaner's. It would be ridiculous of me to expect you to be open"
