    Wal-Mart City?

    Sounds interesting. They want 60 acres to create their own little city within a city full of shops and restaurants. This company is a fucking monster.

              the article said the neighborhood is half black and half mexican.

              so all the spics will pick up the jobs @ the new walmart for below minimum wage, and all the lazy ******s will still continue to sit at home and collect the welfare. As a result of this mega city, the rest of the shops in town will go out of biz. within a year.

                              walmart is ruining the american economy. it employs the largest percentage of workers over any other corporation, and pays them all less than they should recieve. it's unfortunate.

                                                  It's all relative honestly. I live in a small community where the main grocery store and such is a Wal-Mart supercenter and so they are one of the better paying jobs in town for a lot of the people here.

                                                  However nationwide Wal-Mart does have a few bad practices such as how they label their employees so they avoid giving benefits out and overtime. And in addition they are so monstrous at this point they generally crush locally owned businesses.

                                                  Overall I think they have more upside than downside, but I'm not a big fan of giant corps either. But I'd like to visit a Wal-Mart city within a city anyway.

                                                      i'm not saying they're highly skilled neccisarily. i'm saying that the ratio of people they employ and pay minimum wage negatively effect our economy as a whole because you have far less of a percentage of people earning a living wage. and in times when inflation is rising it hurts to be stuck at min. wage.

                                                                              so all the spics will pick up the jobs @ the new walmart for below minimum wage, and all the lazy ******s will still continue to sit at home and collect the welfare.
