My guess is home depot and lows are both owned fully by WAL-MART...aka, the UN one world order.

Facts:
Wal-Mart was not created by sam walton, it is fully owned by the UN from day 1. Those doing business with wal-mart always got their checks from the UN. Like all masons, they 100% lie, first they tell america, but AMERICAN, buy WAL-MART, even though the products mostly all are imported from china...

K-mart was purchased by wal-mart, K-mart by sears.....gas goes up, wal-mart makes less $$$$, so walmart buys gas stations and sells gas at their stores....sams/walmart/sears, etc.. PEOPLE can't live with out cell phones, wal-mart takes over the cell phone market and their company starts accumulating cell phone companies...they are the largest bank, the largest everything, they are the UN/GOVERNMENT company STORE...aka the catholic one world order.....

WAL-MART and all her sister stores travel together, they DIVIDE up and do not compete....thus we have lowes/home depot and quickly, MINARDS showing up on the scene near every wal-mart..

in the RITZ sections of towns, wal-mart goes by upper scale names.........but anyone with an eye, can enter those stores and see wal-mart / sams written all over the walls as they MANAGE their stores all alike....with GREED.

The asians entered the USA some years ago and started buying up every large lumber yard / company and plumbing company coast to coast and you can bet your last penny, american store shelves will be emptied once they start to rebuild japan..."if" they rebuild japan....

AMISH own their own lumber yards, they are HUGE in the destruction of american woods...they enter an area just for the wood and strip the land...but not as near as bad as commercial does....

WHERE TO BUY, who to support? Your cheapest source will be amish....they are into everything with wood, solar, etc... Otherwise, Minards is one of the largest world markets which only points that they are owned by the UN.

It all depends on what your making, need and how fast you need it...at the end of the day, you need best price, best quality..... all my buildings are amish made, much of our furniture is amish made......amish labor is cheaper than commercial labor and certain families are skilled craftsmen that make the finest furniture in america..

They can do anything with wood, but when your talking plumbing and electric, it takes large companies to make a good product at a decent price.....and we all know, asian made anything is made cheap / trash throw away quality..at least what they export to america is made as 'TRASH", most likely on purpose as a joke on us...

There are many amis owned lumber stores that carry it all, but much of it is also commercial made as well, but at least the $$$ goes to the owners and not funneled back to china/un/government/pope...
