39. Okay, I will answer seriously
Edited on Sun Apr-18-04 05:53 PM by Robbien
First point. No, Wal-Mart is not losing money by their pricing scheme. All you have to do is look and see that four of the Wal-Mart owners are in the top ten money earners. Their pricing scheme is low because of the slave labor used off shore. They make tons of money on this pricing scheme and at the same time drive out competition who use USA labor products.

Second point. Low wages for USA workers. Yes the Wal-Mart workers today may go to the Kroger across the street and earn more (if there is a job available), but the Kroger across the street is working to lower their wage scale to Wal-Mart standards. In the next year or two, all store workers will be at the Wal-Mart standards.
