Excellent point UKCATS. And therein you see the source "bad publicity" against Walmart.
Believe it or not, Walmart is not my favorite place to shop, but with some things, its hard to pass up their prices that are more expensive in other stores. I actually prefer Kmart, and it is too bad that Walmart is bumping them out of a great deal of business. Walmart's grocery store, though it is obviously convenient and cheap, has nothing on a traditional grocery in terms of quality and variety.
My point here has been that Walmart has opened up some doors in employing people who are low/not skilled and in selling a huge variety of things to low-income or fixed price customers. There are two sides to the picture here.
A word to the wise. Any "pro or anti" "documentary" you see is always suspect. Someone behind the camera of those "documentaries" has an agenda. I'm not saying to disbelieve, but take it with a grain of salt and if you are really impressed with it, then do a little research to see who actually made and sponsored the documentary. Are any of the people behind the camera suspect, or someone you are impressed with? Documentaries are more than what you see on the TV screen. Someone makes them, and someone sponsors them.
