My favorite store! They help the poor by providing cheaper prices. Where else can you buy milk for $2.99?! All hurting Walmart does is hurt consumers and hurt poor people that shop there. Econ 101, yet again! Why are you targeting the poor and needy?! You think someone like Safeway pays more or pays great benefits?! They wouldn't even hire some of the same people Walmart would. Face it, low skilled workers would be totally unemployed without Walmart. Do you think being on welfare is better? Walmart is the new cotton that is revitalizing the south. You also hurt a Buckingham Nicks'er, IE Gary Hodges, as he works there on his off seasons.
