Kmart is Road Kill
No Room for the Big-K in a Red State (Wal-Mart) and Blue State (Target) World
Just a week or so ago, Kmart was trying to squeeze extra tax incentives out of its home state of Michigan by threatening to move it's corporate HQ to Atlanta. Now they've become road kill in the Bi-polar world that is America. You're either a Coke person or Pepsi person, Wal-mart or target, Dem or Rep. I guess Kmart will still be Kmart, but will survive as a division of Sears. Let's hope they don't bring down Sears or else where would we buy our craftsman tools and Kenmore appliances?
