Re: another. said by S_engineer:There shouldn't be any. The Walmart they put on the Border in Evergreen Park will now shut down an entire mall (Evergreen Plaza) due to undercut pricing. It's sad actually, its one of the first malls built in the country. So the people that were getting paid decent wages with benefits will be replaced by minimum wage workers with benefits provided by Uncle Sam...or you and I. Sorry to hear about your Cubs...maybe this will make you feel better.. (youtube clip) resist  They only way that mall would go out of busines if it lost cusotmers to wal-amrt. Now cusotmers are peole like you can me th CHOOSE to go to wal-mart because they offer the same goods for LESS. Yet somehow you think that A) this is bad and B) people shouldn't be allowed to have CHOICE in where they shop. So I should be forced shop at some place and pay 25% more for the same thing so some guy can make $10 an hour instead of $7.50? This is different than welfare how? |

| There is choice in a mall. The fact that you have an entity such as Walmart thats willing to take a loss in one store (by selling products at a loss) in order to starve out competition around it is detrimental the community as a whole. Unemployment rates rise, as do taxes to pay for those individuals. Not to mention what this does to the established municiple tax base once these businesses call it quits. Municiple services get cut or taxes get raised somewhere else. All so you can shop at the worlds largest Chinese dime store!
China owns I believe 30% of our national deficit. By shopping at Walmart, you contribute to their financial abilty to by our debt!

Saying you can get one item at Walmart cheaper than another item anywhere else, even though they are not the same item, is disingenuous.
Walmart doesn't have cheaper prices. Walmart just has cheaper crap. |
