“Walmart has become the largest company in human history...”

By what metric is Walmart the largest company in human history?

By the number of employees. They’re the largest employer in Arkansas (most states it’s a university or public health system) and they have stores in every town of any size throughout North America.

They also have their own grocery distribution company so you don’t have to pay for the middle man.

I remember when WALTON’S 5&10 was just a small store on the west side of the square in Bentonville AR. There was another 5&10 on the north side of the square. No one remembers them.

Sam did well.
