Poll question: "People of Walmart" - Funny, Mean-spirited, Bad Taste or Innocuous?
http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/

Some argue that this makes fun of the rural poor

If you ask me, though, nowhere on the site does it say "rural" or "poor"

If people go out of the house dressed like that, then they should expect this...

3. Irony in action - WalMart shoppers are the ones MOST LIKELY to have been hurt BY WALMART!
They say they shop there because it is cheaper (myth easily debunked by the Sunday inserts). WalMart moves in and kills the local business community. It won't buy local products and directly contributes to factory closures with its supplier cost demands. The people who are out of work because of WalMart think they are getting a bargain by shopping there. WalMart thrives on people who are that fucking stupid. Damn do they wear some funky shit!
