Disingenuities = lies. I'm not a liar.

WalMart destroys the local retailers by selling at a loss until they go out of biz, then raises prices to the same level or higher than previously, while at the same time lowering the quality of the goods.
Now THAT is disingenuous. How does one "lower the quality" of a roll of Bounty paper towels? Wal-Mart sells a lot of the same brands and products everyone else does. As I said in my prior post, if they sell cheap private label crap, and cheap crap is what you're willing to accept for the price, then you're better off being able to buy it at Wal-Mart than not being able to buy it at all.

Done a lot of reading on the topic. Pretty good at seeing through people's agendas too. Lots of pro-union BS floating around on the whole wage issue. It's not Wal-Mart's fault if the unions have snookered the local food store into paying $15 an hour for a bagger.
