7. Nothing personal against Costco,
but all large corporations are evil. However, Wal-Mart is so evil that it makes Satan blush.

14. Costco pays their employees well and has an excellent benefits package
because they know the value of keeping employees for the long term and happy as well.

5. At least Costco's CEO donates to Democrats.
At least Costco allows employees to unionize. Also, Costco's CEO doesn't pay himself an exhorbitant salary and pays the employees well. In fact, the Wall Street Journal said that Costco was screwing its investors because it treated its employees too well.

Okay, so I'll downgrade them from "evil" to "naughty".

10. Investors can rot in hell. People are surely more important?
While investors are (probably) people, not all people are investors and the stock market is akin to the Vega$ casino anyway. Legal robbery.

6. Wish we had CostCo ...
My place of employment is trying to push a Sam's Club membership on me, and my mother wants me to get it because of how tight money has gotten with her. <sigh> Times like these are the only ones in which I miss working for a retail store that allowed me to purchase things for wholesale.

12. Costco worries Wally World
Costco can and will give walmart a run for the money. They do support dems, and did you hear walmart is pulling Jon Stewarts book. Assholes.
