Since Wal-Mart opened two superstores thirteen miles from Grand Saline, Texas, half of the retail businesses in Bill Quinn's once-thriving hometown have closed. But dismantling the American dream wasn't enough for this retail Goliath, and now Wal-Mart is aiming for world domination. If you've ever wanted to fight for the little guy, now's the time -- and this feisty Texas grandpa will show you how.
They want... WORLD DOMINATION! MUAHAHAHAHA! We have dismantled the American Dream, now we will control ze vorld!

Seriously, this is funny.

That is pretty funny. But it's not like people are going to stop shopping at Wal-Mart because of some book, so why not?

it would be cool if wamart knew how redicolously useless this book is going to be in The Battle Against Walmart and sold it in their superstores in order to mock the author.

That probably enhances Wal-Mart's bottom line, actually. If Wal-Mart thought selling titty magazines brought in enough revenue to offset lost sales from prudes refusing to shop there you can be sure they'd be selling them.
