I for one welcome our new Randian overlords, for if libertarians think that the rich can and should be able to treat the lower classes like shit, sooner or later there will be consequences in the form of a communist uprising. What they don't understand is that the social programs of the new deal are designed to ward off such political extremism. By trampling all over the underclass and removing their social and economic safety nets, they will soon enough achieve what the Soviet Union never could.
lol you won't be saying that when we're all citizens of the "Republic of Walmart"

The only way that could happen is if there is some kind of societal breakdown and the walmart corporation decides to pool it's resources, buy up land and businesses in a small geographical location somewhere and create their own little city state ruled by finance like the renaissance Italian banking families, then as society breaks down further they could become entrenched in the local power structure and form their own republic, possibly bearing the Walmart name.

We will never be all citizens of the "Republic of Walmart". I have the ability to avoid Walmart. You are deathly afraid of the liberties of markets.

Not possible, since in such a societal breakdown, there will not be any such "buying up of land", and in fact there will be no rule of law or respect of private property.
