For good or ill Wal-Mart and stores like it are how we shop today. Do we really want to go back to open air Bazaars?
I don't know what it is these people want. I think that they just like to complain, bitch, moan, and be miserable for no reason other than to be heard. Why, I don't know. If their policies were in place, unemployment would linger around 50%, and the economy would crumble. Of course it would be Bush's fault, and the only solution to it would be to throw more $$ at the problem.
WalMart gets picked on because they're at the top of their game. GM had their share when they were the #1 employer too, as does McDonalds.
The bottom line that these people do not understand is the basic, fundamental truth of any business transaction. When someone buys something, the good or service they are purchasing is of equal or greater value to them than the money they spent for it.
