Thread Name: BS: Has Walmart been defeated?
Subject: RE: BS: Has Walmart been defeated?
Old--


You were in fact whining about how you had to save money in order to be able to pass it on--therefore you had to shop at Walmart.

Pretty feeble excuse-- I pointed out there are many other options in Maryland to save money rather than Walmart.

I note you didn't contradict that--you can't, since you know it's true.

I'm not going to waste my time in collecting statistics on how many towns have had much of their retail establishment destroyed by Walmart--yes, primarily Walmart--as the 5000 lb gorilla--I know nothing will tempt you out of your river of denial.

If you don't think that Walmart has had a huge impact in destroying US jobs, by requiring suppliers to supply so cheaply that they have to have it done overseas- and more so than other retailers--then,-- unsurprisingly-- you need to do more reading.

And your absurd statement about all the US goods Walmart has sold is, sorry to say, totally meaningless. If Walmart did not exist, other US stores would sell the merchandise.

And the other stores treat their employees better than Walmart--which is not hard to do.
