And they will waste all the gains on their stupidity.. I went to Walmart and saw a stack of wood pellets (the kind you use for pellet stoves). They are heavy and cost about 10 cents a pound. I live in Wisconsin and the bags they had on sale were made in Georgia. Ironically, there is a huge wood pellet plant not 4 miles from this Walmart, but they could ship a 40 pound bag all the way from Georgia and still sell it for $4.00 bag. They must like to waste gas.
