You are right our system isn't perfect. As to saving money at Walmart that is a fallacy. If you would bother to shop around you can find most products Walmart sells for less at dollar stores, local mom and pop hardware stores, local grocery stores, etc. Our local True Value (locally owned BTW) sells microwaves for $39, and coffeepots for $9. Got to Walmart and beat that price! Walmart tells you with repeated paid advertisemnets they have the lowest prices, and at one time it was true. But today they have a large market share and are charging more than a lot of other stores for the same items because people don't really and truely price shop. As to a tight budget, large companies forcing their workers to work at $6 an hour while they set record profits in a recession that is killing most industries is the problem. Look at Walmart profits and wonder how they make these profits? Look at this site www.walmartclass.com/walmartclass94.pl to see how they possible treat their women associates (verdic pending). Why haven't we heard about this on the media services? Is WalMart an advertiser? And why do people always respond to points they don't agree with or believe by telling you to get out, or leave the country, or go get XXXX, or bring the "I don't care about their plight" statement? Why do people turn it into a personal issue and insult? Tell me why you think I am wrong about my thesis, I want to just make the system better, not scrap it as you imply. I am giving advise on what I think is currently wrong and some ways to possibly fix it. For all I care you can buy your trains at Walmart or Walmart.com, oh, they don't sell trains? You know, my parents got along fine on my dad's wages long before Walmart and dotcoms. Today my wife and I both have to work and still have less than my parents. We both have college degrees and my dad didn't graduate high school. So tell me again how we are on the right track with dicount stores, imported junk products, large multinationals, free trade zones, and dot coms. Support your local economy or no one else will and your job may be next.
