Wal-Mart Shoppers Running Out of Money

Our economic collapse continues, talk of "recovery" notwithstanding, judging from this article.  What really jumped out at me was this part:

"Wal-Mart shoppers, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck, typically shop in bulk at the beginning of the month when their paychecks come in."
 
The only people who I know of that get checks at the first of the month are people on welfare and public assistance.  I'm guessing even the writer of the article is acknowledging that that makes up most of Walmart's customer base.
