Re: I hate Walmart - a little long
Reminds me of something I read about the "Walmartization of America". Walmart
drives local businesses out by undercutting their prices (partly by having the
cheapest labor costs around, by using non-union, low-cost labor).
This eliminates jobs. The thing is, everyone goes there for the cheapest
prices.
Boycotting Walmart definitely makes sense to me.

"Walmart drives local businesses out by undercutting their prices
(partly by having the cheapest labor costs around, by using non-union,
low-cost labor)."
