i dont agree totally with yall wal-mart lovers or you haters. i shop at wal-mart especially for guns and hunting stuff. they are cheaper and of the same grade as anywhere else. i do not agree with how un american there products are though. manufacturing in the u.s. is becoming non-existent on most major products. find something in wal-mart made in the u.s. its may be a gun but thats about it. they are so cheap because they sell so much. they have the power to pay other companies what they want because they can sell so much for that company. i do miss the days when the items i was buying helped support an american family and put food on their table. wal-mart is joke on what they pay their employees. no health benfits is just wrong. its mostly single moms that work there and they havealso liveoff the welfare system to have enough money to live.food stamps and gov. health programs. i know i married a single mom that could not make it on wal-mart pay. thats just wrong if you have a job and you still cant even support your family
Whatever, Wal-Mart pays there workers a higher starting wage then the majority of other large retailers. Plus, Wal-Mart is the largest employer in the US and these "single mothers" are lucky to have these jobs anyway. If they weren't at Wal-Mart they would be working at Wendy's flipping crappy shrinking meat. Sorry, I don't care personally, it doesn't matter if you give them money anyway, and they’ll just go spend it on lottery tickets anyway.
Screw them, here's a thought, don't get pregnant by some sleazy jerk that won't take care of his kids, get an education, work hard, and quit bleeding the already struggling welfare system because they're too lazy to work hard.
The fact is that without Wal-Mart the unemployment rate would be much higher than it already is so they do more good than bad…..
