The last significant thing I bought at a Walmart was a Henry 22 rifle made in USA.
I rarely shop there. I view their business model as being profitable to the Walton family but harmful to Americans and especially the USA taxpayers that subsidize them on many levels from food stamps to health care.
They are a global corporation that has no allegiance (except China) especially to the USA. They build a warehouse so they can profit, while they have their palm out to politicians who come out of the woodwork giving them special crony benefits. Capitalism was once based upon taking a risk by investment. Today it is about lobbyists working the tax code and economic development so that taxpayers take the risk and the crony global capitalist businesses reap the rewards.
WMT would be the last place I’d trust to buy food, but that’s just my opinion. You buy it where you want.
My wife will shop there for some items, but I don’t anymore. I think the last time I shopped there was last Christmas because I could not find the item in other stores and it was too late to shop online due to shipping. Agree with what you said....they are basically raping us all. Taking EBT billions and propping up Chinese manufacturing.
