[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps because it is in the news that many are striking on Black Friday (today)? WalMart is a double edge sword, IMO. Many people have been able to afford to continue to eat and buy stuff when there has been no real wage growth in the US for years. Then there are all the other problems PP listed. I live in DC so WalMart isn't a choice, not that I would chose it anyway.[/quote] Walmart is big enough and ruthless enough that it artificially depresses all kinds of wages. In effect, they are creating their own customers. Plus, Walmart isn't appreciably cheaper across the board. It's a myth. Plus, in small towns (so basically irrelevant locally), once they've driven all the other options out of business, they raise their prices. And to the PP talking about the charity of the Waltons: gag me. They have made billions by wrecking America. They ought to give away their billions outright.[/quote]
