    It's a viscous cycle. Exploit poor workers that make and sell the product and then sell them the cheap products since that's all they can afford.

    Exploit poor workers! How? its not a freakin sweat shop. Wal-mart pays a competitve wage and gives people benefits that otherwise wouldn't have it. Most likely these are the only jobs these people can get, and i am happy wal-mart is employing them.

    I hate walmart. But... I really is the best place to go sometimes. I have no problem with going in the store. The workers are usually very friendly. I just dont like the "establishment" of walmart. Bullyin' the little companys into selling for lower prices and such. :mad:

    Thats why to me walmart = SHIT

    Wal-Mart sucks! And so do all large corporations.

    i refuse to go to any walmart. actually, i have one 5 minutes from my house (closer than any other store) and under no circumstances will i ever go there.
    politics aside, i just don't trust walking around people who look diseased, don't brush their teeth or take a shower and are willing to let their 8 year old be no less than 30 lbs overweight.
    disgusting. simply disgusting.

    True..yet I still shop there for discounts and bargains :o

    Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts are also taking over the local coffee shops too.
    We got three Starbucks(one alone, one in the mall, one in Barnes & Noble) and about 5 Dunkin Donuts...Seriously, do we need that much? :mad:

    Ive worked at local resturant, a pizza hut that was locally owned and I currently worked at walmart. I have gotten a 1.20 raise in a year and make $8.20, which beat both those places and i get treated better. my store atleast has a great management team and overall a great staff. Wal-Mart is a pretty decent company to work for with alot of potential to move up if you work hard and show ambition. only problem i have is i cant join a union.

    I've never been to a Walmart. Although every time they try to build one anywhere near the city, they fail.

    their company logo is modern art though
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    kansas, eh?
    i truly hope you are able to better yourself.

    not to sound too condesending, but people below the mason-dixon line should keep looking out for themselves.
    please, for your kids, keep looking..................

    they put local businesses out of business, which means the only jobs in towns become cheap, unskilled, low-wage shit jobs, as you'd encounter in Walmart.

    WALMART SUCKS ASS! I think the last time I walked into a Walmart was in 2003...TARGET is the place I shop...I love their produce section and they have Einstein bagels there too :)

    i don't pretend to be too good for walmart.
    i buy when the price is right and walmart has some great deals: cleaning supplies, toiletries, etc.

    it can get a wee bit hostile in there sometimes...throw some bows and you'll keep your place in line.
