WalMart might be a good move. They are an extremely tough company to deal with from the supplier (healthcare operations) side.
Anyone who loves WalMart must be blind to how they are destroying America.
Remember, Hillary Clinton was on the Board of Directors of WalMart and WalMart flew Bill Clinton around to the primaries in their corporate jets.
Walmart is the reason that Charlie Trie and all the other illegal campaign contributions came into Clinton’s campaign and were never prosecuted.
Walmart is not out for you, they are out for themselves by playing an unlevel playing field. They have cost this country far more jobs than they created.
You need to read the book, how Walmart is destroying America.
A friend of mine quit as a regional Walmart manager. She said that Walmart would actually take pictures of their competitors in an area and put the pic on their office bulletin board. They would then price their products to drive that store out of business, raising their own prices when it closed. She said they would put a huge red “X” over the picture on their office bulletin board as they drove them out.
After closing the competing stores in a community, they would close their own store to open a regional Super Walmart, forcing the elderly to find transportation to the regional store. When Walmart enters a community, there is a net loss of jobs.
I’m for free tade on a level playing field. Not by using slave labor to support a Communist China regime!
“.....cheaper prices..” There is a difference between “cheap” and “value”. The author is correct in that if you want something cheap you go to Walmart. If you want value for your purchase you go someplace else.
I can buy four pairs of work boots at Walmart for what I pay at Redwing. Redwings are made in the USA, by US workers, and are made of premium leather. Mine are four years old and still look new. The cheap boots are made in foreign shops, by foreign workers, paid slave wages, at companies that get to ignore safety and environmental regulation and they may not last six months in line of work. They are then thrown away, like most junk, continuing the cycle of waste.
If Walmart is able to bring competition to the medical market place, well good for them and us. If they want to bring “cheap” then we need to be careful what we wish for.
WalMart good, WalMart bad? I shop at the store that best serves my needs, at the moment it’s a local WalMart. If someone does a better overall job I’ll shop there.
Walmart is making (heard) 29 million dollars an hour. How? Getting you to buy less in quantity and quality for the same price you paid yesterday, by lowering quality because they force manufacturers to lower their prices. Even my toothpaste has air bubbles in it. I never had air bubbles in my toothpaste while growing up or we would have been making fart jokes about it. Ever notice how a new product is good but by the next season it is garbage? obviously I have shopped there.
Whenever I visit Walmart,I faintly hear “Dueling Banjos” in the background.....
Wal-Mart is the reason that all manufacturing has gone to China and American homes are filled with cheap plastic crap.
I buy at a Mom and Pop (franchise) hardware store because if I need twwelve inches of 3/4" PEX tubing the gal at Walmart wouldn't know what the hell I was talking about.
