Great stuff guys, keep it up!

walmart brings wages up by decreasing the costs of its goods. each dollar goes further when things get cheaper. this is how standards of living rise. this is how economies grow. production increases, goods get cheaper, more people afford more things.

[0990edmontonoilers]

b.s wal mart is smart by not caring for employees. wal mart id greedy they should pay benifits for there employees.

[kdawg860]

walmart is just as greedy as any company. they just happened to have figured out how to deliver products and services for better and cheaper than their competitors. i'm from LA and the two places where there are walmarts here the neighborhoods are nice. why? because walmart allows people to get more for their dollar. standards of living rise when goods get cheaper. economics 101 refutes socialism. learn it.

[beatlechick1]

Don't forget, Kmart was once in nice neighborhoods, too. Your statement just doesn't make a lot of sense. When goods gets cheaper, it means they're made out of country. Meaning the standard of living of the people who live in country who make the same goods, gets lower. Also means a big dent in that country's economy. I suggest you go back and learn econ. 101.

[kdawg860]

so why did china get so much wealthier when they started making a lot of goods that we bought? their standard of living INCREASED because they traded more (although right now they are lending our federal govt billions, devaluing their currency, but more on that later). i would love to have a discussion on econ with you. let's start with this: let's pretend there is a completely closed society of 100 people on an island. how does their standard of living increase? can it?

[beatlechick1]

Most Chinese would love to know how wealthy they're getting. I have known some and they would love to know since most of the country's employees only make less than what our minimum wage laws are. If you think MallWart's the reason for their money, you have another thing to learn.

As for a closed society of 100 or less on an island making it? Of course they can. As long as they use their brains collectively they can succeed and make a society. No money needed, just brains.

[kdawg860]

okay, so communism makes societies wealthier? that is what collectivism/communal living is.

[kdawg860]

i can go on and on about communist china, but under collectivism, china had the largest famine in world history. it wasn't until markets were allowed after mao zedong died that people stopped starving. if you go to china now they have much more wealth than before. there are still poor people but that's due to the govt still largely controlling many sectors of the economy. the freer the economy, the greater the wealth.

man you should be getting more hits than this

[Syph0dia6]

I'm always surprised how America can be so anti-trade unionism, considering all the benefits they would have for the average worker. The government and right-wing media really did a superb job when they managed to associate equality and better working conditions with communist dictatorship. However there is some small consolation in the fact that on a global scale the USA is still young, and hopefully it will fall out of love with laissez faire capitalism and its inequalities like Europe did.

[reck860]

SypOdia6, What inequalities. Do you mean when person A works harder than person B and succeeds more. Is that wrong? Your right we should all get paid the same, hve the same houses, same cars, all provided by the government. That way there wouldn't be any inequality!

[Syph0dia6]

I'm glad you agree.

[oilers0990]

union are good heres why. They dont let companies walk all over you. you get health care benifits payed hoiladays i make $25 per hour because we are uinon. And yes people are forced to work at sweat shops. Freedom means free speech like in canada health care is free,U.S.A Companies are coming to canada cause of whats going on in the u.s.a plus all the oil alberta canada has. nice talking to you. god bless cheers

[reck860]

It's not the early 1900's. With all the lawyers around you can't speak up for yourself and get a good job that pays $25 per hour because you must not be worth it. Also smart one Canadian healthcare isn't free, it's paid for by taxes. Last I knew doctors and nurses don't work for nothing in Canada. U.S. companies go to Canada because of less regulations and government b.s..

[digger316]

Socialism always works out so wonderfully.

[monetb4b]

That's right! Let free markets reign - workers be damned. The customer that chooses, or is forced to buy cheap, disposable goods because of lower wages, is always more important than the worker who, because our conglomerates have forced out smaller businesses and competitive wages, has to work for us at wages we dictate. Huzzah - victory in the class war!

We couldn't have said it better ourselves!

[Zaden777]

Lol, nice

[Orionx26]

You mentioned yourself that it wasn't free market. When Bush is giving tax cuts he is boosting big business into the market. That's not free market that is the government helping out its friends which has happened throughout history. The government needs to stay out of the market. They only screw it up.

[tesla921]

Your problem is that you think the worker is more important that the customer. Just like the former Soviet socialists. Your not for freedom. You think Wal-Mart should be forced to run their business the way you want. I think they've proven they can do alright on their own. Their customers overwhelmingly vote for Wal-Mart with their dollars. So, butt out and let freedom reign.

[oilers0990]

freedom do you know what that means? second freedom hey sweat shops are okay to you ? childern working for 2 dollars a day at factories. walmart s need to be unionized all over the world. i could go on forever bye.

[tesla921]

Unions are terrible. Just ask anyone who used to live in the Soviet UNION. Unions use gov't force to get their way. Little wonder companies are leaving the US. Union workers get paid more than they are worth. Sweat shops are much better than no income at all. Nobody is FORCED to work in a sweat shop! Do you know what freedom means???

[0990edmontonoilers]

what do you mean union works get paid more than there worth? if your boss offered you more money you would say no thanks? union brought in benifits to the work place unions brought in the health care unions give you rights, union say yes you are worth more money unions stand up for you when in need .I work for a union and im a vice president. sweat shops so a pair of nikes cost 11.43 to make they pay there employees 32 to 43 cents per hour with no benfits. mmmmmm you have your opinion

[tesla921]

Without the customer, you would have no jobs. You would have no unions to extort money from the workers.

" unions say you are worth more", Hahaha!!! Only the customer can do that by buying your product instead of some other.

Unions eventually run your company out of business. GM, Chrysler anyone???

As much as unions would like to, they can't force customers to buy. And, customers won't buy when unions force their company products to become too expensive.

Vice president heh! .....Hahaha!
