This thread *really* should have stuck with pontoon boats. I'll join the "big box retail discussion list" when I want to hear about this stuff.

Costco pays its people a living wage so I do not have to augment their salary with my tax money through welfare and food stamps. Its good to know that the people who check me out do not have to raise their kids on poverty wages. 2. Costco employees get a very good health insurance benefit, unlike Walmart employees who are the single largest employed group on Washington State tax payer subsidized funded insurance. 3. Costco doesn't claim to be a big community supporter, while sucking at the public trough, and contributing millions to every Wingnut politician who mouths a silly platitude. 4. Costco has not been caught and fined by the U.S. Justice Department for locking in cleaning crews of illegal immigrants in their stores till morning. Dave
