More Proof that Walmart is evil!

[Tmy]

Walmart will destroy this country if they are not stopped. They swoop into town undercut the competition, pay and treat employees like crap. Soon they are the only game in town, and they enslave the public while raking in the profits!

Walmart is like a giant drug dealer. They get you hooked with their discount prices. Instead of selling crack, they get you with cheap houselhold products, potato chips, and shotty clothing!

FIGHT THE POWER!


Walmart Discrimination Suit Approved

(San Francisco-AP) -- A San Francisco federal judge has granted class-action status to a sex-discrimination case against Wal-Mart.

The suit could represent as many as 1.6 million current and former female workers, in what has become the largest private civil rights case in U-S history.


The suit alleges Wal-Mart set up a system that frequently pays female workers less than their male counterparts for comparable jobs and bypasses women for key promotions.

You can't use a pending lawsuit as proof for anything, especially in USA.

As oppose to the "mom and pop" stores that bent over backwards to pay their employees great salaries? Give me a break.

I love Wal-Mart.

I hate shopping, but have to buy things. Whenever I can get everything I want at relatively low prices all at the same place, I take advantage of the opportunity.

As a matter fo fact, I'm wearing shoddy Wal-Mart sandals and shorts right now, while drinking Dr. Pepper from a 24 oz bottle purchased at Wal-Mart.

I am a Walmartian.

You really don't want to use Henry Ford as an example.

And Wallmart does put money back into community just as much as mon 'n pop stores if not more.

Yeah, not like those evil Wal Marts that pay millions in local taxes and... er, well...

Pray tell, Timster, how mom n' pop stores (which generally offer NO benefits at all) "give back to the community."

Where have all the Henry Fords gone!??

Buried, where all socialist antisemites should be.*


* Allegedly.

 

[Sundog]

LOL. Why did I just know the righties would LEAP to the defense of Walmart!

Ask Andalyn what effect Walmart had on MY hometown. On MY parents' business.

I don't know if he was a socialist but he definetly was an antisemite.

How many people did your parents employ? How much did they pay in taxes? What benefits did they offer?No offense, but your offended feelings are no grounds for conedemning the economics of big box stores.

To crib a page from you, I just KNEW the lefties would come out and base their economic models on feelings about mom's bakery or dad's hardware shop.

 

[Tmy]

BAH! They dont give back ◊◊◊◊. And mom n pop can mean anything less than mega-global-corp when compared to Satanmart.

Didnt Walmart buy its way onto a town referendum ballot in order to do an end around the towns zoning board?? I think theyve done this in a couple places. Nice.

Of course, they also provided the people in your hometown, including your parents, inexpensive products.

Seems to me that selling a gallon of milk for $0.20 below the cost of the same in even a major supermarket chain is a fairly decent example of "giving to the community."

OTOH, I personally HATE Walmart (known to my wife and me as "the pithole of the earth,"), but the suggestion that it does not "give back to the community" is extremely short-sighted.

You couldn't be more wrong.

They stayed in town just long enough to drive every other place out of business, making the downtown a ghost town, and then closed the store and moved it eight miles away, to south Tulsa. It has taken a DECADE for some local business to rebound to the point where you don't have to drive to Tulsa for everything.

My hometown is a bankrupt ruin of a ghost town. This was MY hometown, and Walmart ruined it singlehandedly.

Ok Sundog, what effect did it have on your hometown?

Tmy's from the Boston area, I believe so I can sympathize on the "Wal-mart sucks" and I'm going to throw in K-mart.

The area had several local chains that were like Wal-mart. They were Zaires(later Ames), Bradlees, and Caldors. Wal-mart didn't begin to really move in on the area until about a decade or so ago and K-mart started opening up a few more stores. Then the local chains started to go out of buisness.

I, for one, really liked Caldor's. It was actually a bit more towards Kohl's than Wal-mart, but it was still the same, general kind of store.

Wal-mart back in my hometown is... well, kinda skanky in regards to staff and customers, but that could be the town's fault. They also tried to take one of the larger supermarket chains when they moved in, or so was the gossip.

So no, I'm not a Wal-mart fan. I won't deny that the company brings jobs. Also, money.

I just miss my old stores.

Now Target... that's a whole other barrell...

Oh my Ed! You had to drive the entire eight miles to get to the store? How horrible!
