Thinking of shopping at Wal-Mart this holiday season?

[rickster348]

as long as I can save money, I don't care.

[TEX10261]

if we stop shopping at wal-mart will the person making the goods lose his or her job end up on the street and starve ?

[jcrowley1985]

@TEX10261

That's why we should stop shopping at walmart and all of us should start stealing from walmart. The otherwise poverty striken people in China get to keep their job, we get our free goods, the only people who lose are the greed walmart execs who deserve it.

[BWhudson]

Its funny, america call on china to have better human rights but per capata america has more of its population in jail then china.

[ToonTownHuckleberry]

@BWhudson im pretty sure working conditions in those factorys and stuff are bad. and in mines? lets not even go there.

[rimidalv47]

If they are gonna have low prices,of course the stuff is gonna be from the PRC.

[razzielover1]

What about .99 cents only stores? And Dollar Tree? And Dollar General? And Family Dollar? And Big Lots? And.......

[Luigi84289]

FUCK Walmart.

[Decker5926]

"At Wal-Mart, we can save you money on the products you buy because we pay some poor little Chinese girl in a sweat shop about 8 cents an hour to build your product...and we cut out unnecessary expenses like air conditioning...but we also make out like bandits, because your product costs us about 15 cents and then we turn around and sell it to you for $19.88! We win...annnd you win...kind of...The little Chinese girl doesn't win, but who cares! They're communists anyway!"

[Sogwa]

@Decker5926

Oh poor little girl. Well then hire an Indian. $1 is about 20 rupees & they r dirt poor & lndia isn't communist!

Or simply allow the Mexicans to continue in their slave labor & Re-open more Amer. factories. Then u can truely Buy American.

This video is insulting, biase (as this is pure & basic capitolism) jaded, &unfair, (as EVERY corp. DOES THIS)! lt also ignores the banks, big oil, food & drug cartel, right here in the states!..........

[Sogwa]

@Sogwa (2)

....I never worked 4 McD or Walmart but l will CONTINUE 2 buy at my fav store & if mcd sold soy milk in their blended drinks, SCREW *$ who is WAAAY more expensive!!

l want local produce & healthy local food! l'd care less about buying foreign cars & goods. Folks buy pricy European clothes & shoes & brag & no one bitches (except some extreme peta folks). No one cars 4 Amer. cars now yet everyone wants 2 harass Walmart & Mcd like they'r the mascot of corp evil when in reality.. .

[Sogwa]

@Sogwa (3)

.........the BANKS, BIG OIL, the FDA, & DRUG CARTEL do SO MUCH MORE DAMAGE by eliminating local farmers, selling us cancerous, cloned, disgusting, fake food chicken, beef, & dairy with massive anti-biotics (wonder why anti boitics don't work anymore) & harmones that boys r being born gay & girls r starting their period at 6 & 8 yrs old!!!

[Sogwa]

@Sogwa (4)

.....Where is the uproar of why a TOXIC can of soda or candy (which is made from motor oil, rocket fuil, & materials NO WHERE IN NATURE in some lab worthy of Harry Potter Hogwarts school of Magic by lab techs, mad scientists, & Dr. jeckell & Mr. Hyde)

is MORE EXPENCIVE than a jar of 100% juice or a fruit that GROWS IN UR BACKYARD?!?

Where r the questions, uproar, & protests 4 that over some Amer. corp. trying to sell humans great products that we want & dirt cheap prices?!?!

[andyhwang2009]

Chinese products are safety now. Chinese workers wages is $5 per hour, 1 hour break time. Chinese work only 5 days  a week. Chinese work place is big and clean. Now Chinese companies establish factories in USA because Mainland Chinese like made in USA products . Chinese companies will hire American workers . Salary is good. $ 12 per hour.

[canadasimpsons555]

i hate this

[canadasimpsons555]

That racist! I'm not making fun but why do US do this a lot? You never here Canada or other country do this! Also I like the US but they have to stop doing this!

[terrahotaru]

.... somehow, I have a feeling that this warning is insulting china. A lot of products are made in China. I'm not a big fan of walmart. but this warning just strikes me at the bad side.

[andre555555]

walmart sux!

[JaniceParton]

They tell us to think about why the products from are so cheap?! Where? Products from China are NOT cheap (money wise), in Walmart or anywhere else. And I'd like to know why they are so pricey, because it's all junk! They use the cheapest material possible, finds all manner of short cuts, and many times are dangerous. But try to find products not made in China. Near to impossible. If by chance they are made in USA, the material is nearly always bought from China.

[dstebbin]

China isn't near as bad as people think it is. I have pen pals in China; turns out, there's a lot of stereotypes we have about them that is just blatant international slander.

Human rights are respected more in China than we give them credit for.

[6308281]

Who you do you think your kidding- China has a population of billions and the few who live or think they live better are in hong kong or one of the cities - they only represent a minuscule of the chinese peoples population

[dstebbin]

Do you personally know anyone in China? Just a single person who's more than a customer support representative?

I know what I'm talking about.

[canadasimpsons555]

@dstebbin i agree!

[bestwayusa1]

check out John Riches shutten down detroit and the ibuyusa video on you tube the guy has great words. We cant be sheep and spellbound anymore by deceitful politicians, media, and forieign unfair trading countries wich are paying and owning these peoples greedy souls.They are not American Patriots They are about me not We.Support Fair trade Domestic owned. BUY USA on line and at stores. Country First !!!

[maxvago1234]

i think that if americas not careful china might be able you attck us from within with shotty products and tainted food so the congess needs to watch very closely or all hell could break loose !

[elevatorsonly]

Does this apply with Sam's Club, which is owned or created by Walmart?

[dieselducy]

yes. sams club is a walmart owned store. i'd stay away from them too.. alternitives are costco and bjs wholesale.

[elevatorsonly]

OK.... THANKS for the advice!!!!

[Sogwa]

@dieselducy

Which also get 80% of their stuff fromk slave labor like china!

[Diezelraccoon]

This video is bull shit. If you dont think Target or Kmart import the same amount of their stuff from overseas think again. Pick on wal mart because they are number one.

[PWade91]

When they are talking about wal mart, they are talking about all of those big box stores, wal mart is their choice of names because they represent the industry. Its the same as saying Big Oil or iPod

[fuknipon]

you got what you pay,cheap product is for cheap people,good product is not cheap.wake up cheap people

[gaaralee1234]

PFfffffff....ok here goes my rant..sort of..Look through your house. I GUARENTEE you that at minimum at least 75% of your house items has a lil tag saying 'made in china' everything plastic and all your video games will say that I bet MY house that. Secondly all stores prbably have a 70% made in China rate, if not their prices gotta be at least two times Walmart prices sooo SHUT YOUR GOT-DANG FACES...

[patty0130]

Just Walmart??? How stupid. Just about every big box store is selling crap from China....just try to find US made products - its like looking for a needle in a haystack!

[dieselducy]

yes you are right and WALMART started the trend!!

[Gerardsbff]

freakin china makes everything we have...haha and thats y we are all getting sick hahaha i heard a few dogs died from werid crap in dog foos from freakin china

[RedShirtArmy]

Great video. Big Business has betrayed America. Buy small, buy local.

[verronica10]

sooo every show has from china

[akje93]

Every store has this, why are you ragging on Wal-Mart?

[HeirToDC]

Seems like walmart is one of the biggest, so why not get them to topple?

[greenlinetheorem]

the other 30% is from Taiwan.

[charliemaine01]

But, Taiwan has MUCH higher quality standards and worker conditions.

[AaronApolloCamp]

You actually bring up a complicating factor regarding this "Made in China" debate. Seeing "Made in China" on a product lablel can imply that the product was made in Mainland (Communist) China, which goes under the People's Republic of China, or Taiwan, which goes under the Republic of China. Most products made in Taiwan are listed as being produced in Taiwan, but not all of them are labeled that way.

[charliemaine01]

and is a democratic country

[jepleure]

No kidding. Or Mexico, for that matter. It's becoming increasingly rare to find a product that says, "Made in the USA"

[dieselducy]

Maglite is one product that is still made in the usa..

[elevatorsonly]

YES!!! I have 2!

[markofkane2]

If you buy Chinese made products, you are a traitor. China is a communist country. End of story.

[canadasimpsons555]

fuck you u asshole dumb shit!

[Hamlin06]

Not that I needed another reason to not shop at walmart, but this really brings it home... 70%??!! That is ridiculous. I mean 10, 20, 30 percent might be understandable, but 70%??!

OK. you get my point.. I am a little shocked, but not surprised?

[adolphas]

The more I think about it, the more that I realize Walmart is like a communist country too, just like its favortie supplier, China. They sell whatever they want, including recalled goods, and are for the supposed "common good" even though they do harm to communities and employees, but that seems to make them closely related to their commie counterparts.

[CBanks4]

Interesting. It isn't so much DOES walmart have a responsibility. To me, it is more of a statement... THEY DO HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY.

The question then becomes -- what do we want them to do? Go away? Not gonna happen. Hold them accountable with our shopping preferences, now there is an idea...

[deepwater1974]

You know how we make them more accountable, Make it hard for them to trade overseas, Better health Care there for there employees. RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2008. Trust me on this. I am a patriot to this country and I love the people who live here and I hate when stores like walmart take advantage of them. Seriously, Check out Ron Paul on you tube. See what he stands for. Im voting for him.

[Hamlin06]

Ron Paul seems like the kind of guy that would actually take these guys to task. Would love to see him as president, or even a key cabinet member to handle this trade issue and/or the healthcare one too.

[Sogwa]

@Hamlin06

Yes but Ron Paul is still getting dicked around by the banks & the Fed as his brother is constantly getting audited by the IRS. Altho l don't know agree (altho l don;t know much on his take) on minority & civil rights (not gay rights altho that is also thrown into the same pot) Ron Paul has been trying 2 deal with the shady banks & fake Fed.

Of course this video & ur post is over 2 yrs old!

LASTLY, WHY R RT. WINGERS AGAINST BASIC CAPITOLISM WHICH IS ALL WALMART IS PRACTICING?!

[capozzin]

YES! i am so glad to see other people out there who have realized what this country needs!! THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP!!!! RON PAUL 2008!!!!

[soghacker]

if you're looking for products actually made by americans check out findusmade dot com for some great christmas ideas

[godworks777]

Thanks!

[pmckinney]

Ditto. Don't you hate how places like Walmart claim to be all-American and yet they sell foreign crap and treat their AMERICAN employees terribly?

[pmckinney]

Does that mean that their shelves are empty this holiday season... after all the recalls? Or do they just keep the recalled items on the shelves? Either way, not gonna be shopping there...

[jackiib00143xxx]

the video is not far from the truth I had to take my dog to the doctors at my own expense because he ate the food tha was on recall. He was sick and thank god he is ok now

[das32schveet]

man im sorry about that. im gonna be handing out fliers against walmart that i printed from wakeupwalmart dot com . your story really inspires me!

[deepwater1974]

I worked for walmart and they treat there employees like trash. I no longer work for them and I no longer shop there or at any of there sister stores

[jackiib00143xxx]

I also work for walmart but I have no other place to go at the moment . It is hard to find a job for a 50 ear old women. I do not lilke the things that they do . You put in a complaint and nothing is done about the supervisor because sge kisses !!!!!!!!!!

[Sogwa]

@jackiib00143xxx

That unfortunately sounded like my former ass hole jobs!

Check out my JUNE BLOG where l speak of Walmart, my former ass hole jobs, etc!!!

Search my profile for JUNE BLOG! It is totally a rant on ass hole jobs - & NONE of them were McD or Walmart (the corp mascot of evil in Amer as folks ignore the evil FDA, drug cartel, big oil, banks, etc)!!!

[kentuckyfriedYT]

Actually, I come from China. And the fact that I'm not there now, well, that says something

[canadasimpsons555]

I'm from Canada and I'm Chinese and I don't get you.

[Sogwa]

@canadasimpsons555

I find this to be over rated, biased, & insulting 2 say the least & l never worked 4 McD (who is always the mascot of fast food evil) or Walmart nor am l affiliated w/ China in any way.

[canadasimpsons555]

@Sogwa ok

[GhettoNeddo]

is walmart our new national icon?

[TDawg830]

Kinda makes you think..
