No, “Wal-Mart man” is not crazy. Not only does WM provide health care for it’s employees, it provides low-cost prescription drugs for those who shop there. And, because of their offering these low-cost drugs to the general public WM is putting competitive pressure on other retailers to do the same. So, prices are coming down. Additionally, if you are concerned about the demise of those small mom and pop stores, keep in mind that WM is offering vastly nore jobs than these stores ever could, plus benefits which the mom and pop stores never offered. So, get past your romantic Norman Rockwell vision of an America that never was.
