When I say Walmart's fine I mean it's good to have a place offering that kind of variety at good prices - in this respect consumers have it really good in America. Of course Walmart screws its employees over in the process, the same as other corporations are doing to outsourced labor and stockholders. I'm not saying *that* is fine. My argument was more along the lines of "If America wants to build giganto stores for itself, fine. But don't force it on the rest of the world." It's cultural imperialism aided by capitalism, or vice versa. Problem is, business people around the world know there's money to be made with Walmart and greedy people exist everywhere. Hopefully enough common-sense and ethical business people and community leaders will decide to take action in each of these places.
