Dark Black Friday


Well the day that so many people waited for has come and gone, but not with out its issues. I regret to inform those who are not aware, a worker from a Walmart store was trampled to death by customers bursting through the doors to get the ""great deals"". Also a woman miscarried in that same stampede! I understand that many people are so excited about sales and shopping, but is it really that serious that you have to loose lives in the process.
I stepped back and gave this issue some serious thought and came up with the following. Businesses convince the world that they need the products that they produce, they bombard you with sales ads, then make it affordable and then hype it up. Sure the credit card companies want you to spend-spend-spend also. See, they get you with the over the limit charges and eternal debt. Of course they convince you that Jesus Christ was born on December 25th, but can't prove it, nevertheless, you need to get everybody a gift for this occasion except the honoree. What a process. Oh well if it is working and people don't mind the killing of innocent lives and the harm to your credit rating, then by all means do you.
Black Friday has come and gone. I just feel bad for the two families of the people mentioned above.
