22. Baloney - Walmart's food prices suck!

In my town, they drove two union groceries stores out of business, and replaced those jobs with minimum wage part-time crap jobs. I know some of the guys who lost their jobs, and I wouldn't shop at Walmart if they were cheaper.

The fact is, on groceries they aren't - there's three good groceries stores in town here left that beat them consistently, and I shop at one that pays well and has a bunch of employees that love the store they work for.

Walmart has spent billions convincing people first they're the cheapest, which is often a lie, and second that its reasonable to drive way out of town to save 12 cents on a pair of socks. The truth is, once you've bought into the advertising and are stuck out there, you're likely to buy whatever you need. in spite of the price penalty.

Walmart is a giant money vacuum, sucking the wealth out of communities and funneling it into the hands of the Waltons, and nowhere else. They create poverty.
