Did you hear about Walmart buying GM?

Published April 20th, 2009 in Autos, Insanity, Retail | No Comments »

In a wild, and wacky move that has the financial, and automotive worlds freaked out Walmart has announced that it will be buying General Motors.

Supposedly, once the deal has gone through, Walmart will be shutting down all of the assembly plants for a period of time. When the shops are opened back up, the jobs in them will be on the income level of a greeter at a Walmart store. No union, as per Walmarts policy of not wanting unions in any of their stores.

This very cool news. Now you will be able to buy a car out in the garden center. Wonder if they will be having some really good deals?

Walmart to buy GM

In a surprising announcement that has both the Financial, and Automotive worlds stunned, super retailer Walmart has stated that they will be buying General Motors.

When asked why this sudden decision, an unidentified Walmart source stated, “This just makes sense. We advertise American products, what is more American than GM?”

But what about the unions? Walmart has been in the news many times concerning the corporate position of their stores being non-union. When this questions was asked of our unidentified source, they answered, “Once the sale is complete we will shut down all of the plants for 60 days, and re-open with non-union labor. We can hire 4 people for the amount of money most of the autoworkers are currently earning. With not having the union driving up our payroll percent, we can drive car prices right down there.”

Walmart/Gm. Kind of makes you wonder, eh?
