Walmart

I think Walmart has fairly made itself successful, but at the same time is bad for our economy. The low prices that everyone loves are at many other peoples expense. The employees get awful health benefits and end up paying huge bills for their kids and such, and tax payers have to pay higher taxes in order to pay for government aids like food stamps and Medicaid. Walmart is one of the richest corporations in the world so they should support their employees by paying them more or helping with their health benefits do they have a chance to support their families. Also, the family owned shops that have been in business for many years are being closed because of Walmart, which I think is really sad because it increases unemployment.

I agree with kara. Even though walmart has been very successful, at the same time its bad for the economy. I also agree that its sad that family owned businesses are now closing because of walmart.
