Where did you get this? Are capitalists finally fighting back?

That was impressive. I've been victim to the anti-Wal-Mart sentiment. I just saw a story on them buyin' shrimp made with slave labor, though.

I still don't know what to make of them.

EDIT: Why can't I find that politifact link, when I type it in?


EDIT2: Found it at the bottom of this

poor wallmart

Wal mart is not a capitalistic company, they are cronyists. With that said they are the wrong company to try to go at in this manner. They are simply too powerful and not THAT bad

If that is available to them, then they have absolutely no incentive not to take advantage of it. As long as a set of inperfect rules exist rational actors wil exploit those rules.

Now, i know what you will say to this. Wal mart made those rules for themselves. And they did. This is why they arent capitalists. The issue with the wal marts of the world( wal mart i really just dont see as that bad), the exxons, the GEs , etc. Is what can realistically be done? They accumulated power through what is seen by the public as legit means. Their shyt cant just be confiscated.

This is why the public corporation was the best idea elites have ever had. Thanks to that and 401k plans regular people have a direct stake in the success of these companies, so they will never truly oppose them. Young people dont own stock, so they feel comfortable trying to take them down.

Wal mart provides absolutely nothing of value as far as I am conerned. They are a gateway to china and promote mindless consomuer culture. But in a world in which rupert murdoch is one of the ten richest men, we have endless war, pollution, starvation, lack of clean water, etc. I cant be mad at wal mart. They have low prices and hire/promote black people. What else can I ask for?

ehhhh hold up there.

I've heard VERY interesting arguments that might suggest the Walton family get awarded for helping to raise tons of people out of poverty.

Walmart's aggressive pricing strategy has offered goods to poor people at an extent NO other company has ever been able to do.

No company is perfect, but what they've been able to do on a day to day basis is utterly incredible.

I will wait until the rules become perfect enough to care
