Wal-Martian Invasion
Barbara Ehrenreich is a successful writer. She has written 13 different books, one of which is a New York Times Bestseller, Nickel and Dimed. She also is constantly contributing to the New York Times, Harpers, Time, and the Progressive. With this being the case she is constantly writing about the country as a whole and letting us know of current issues. This is what helps makes this article, Wal-Martian Invasion, a good one. Her ethos is incredible, although she doesn't tell us in the article about herself it is extremely easy for us to search the Internet about Ehrenreich. Also because she is always writing it is easier for her to get facts that some of us could never find, for example; in the third paragraph of the article she is talking about the growth rate of super centers, and she mentions that by her calculations by the year 4004 every square inch of the U.S. will be covered by super centers.

Well by 4004, real aliens will probably have taken over anyway, and since aliens are so smart, maybe they'll solve all our problems.
This is true. Also by 4004 I'm pretty sure that all of us in this class will be dead as will our children and there children. Hopefully one of these future generations can do something about this. Maybe will we be able to live on Mars or the Moon who knows.
