Wal-mart sucks

I think that Wal-mart is the root of all evils in our economy. The less you spend, the farther down our economy will spiral, as money is kept out of the system. The money you spend at a normal store (instead of extreme discount stores like Wal-mart) goes to pay workers at that store, people who ship merchanise to and from manufacturers to the stores, workers in those factories and the list goes on and on. When you shop at stores like Wal-mart, highly underpaid workers are receiving minimal benefits from that dollar you just spent and all it does is allow Wal-mart to continue selling products at such low costs that local businesses have to go out of business because they cannot compete with the sales of Wal-mart and other large, chain stores.

Wal-mart does exactly this in every area they exist: they build an oversized building and, because they are a huge chain, they can afford to temporarily set prices so low as to put all or most other competitors out of business. After the competition is gone, Wal-mart can then raise prices to where the other stores were, merely replacing their competitors and paying workers a ridiculously low wage to the point where even their own workers can't afford to buy their goods.

Wal-mart is like a fuedal system in the Dark Ages of Europe. They suck.
