Shopping at Wal-Mart is a different story. Wal-Mart has some really bad
employee practices, like not paying workers when they work through their
breaks and a history of locking in workers at night. They are very
anti-union as well.
Wal-Mart does predatory pricing on the things they buy. This forces the
suppliers to cut costs drastically. And on some products, the quality
really suffers. Plus, the only way some makers can make the products at
the prices that Wal-Mart demands is to send work out of the country.
I don't shop there.
