Wal-Mart does not care who is killed by falling merchandise. Again, they treat this as a cost of doing business. It's not safe to work or shop in Wal-Mart. I'd hate to be in a Wal-Mart in an earthquake. It doesn't take an earthquake for goods to fall off those high shelves. A box bends some and down comes everything on top of it. This has been widely reported by the media. I've seen several network magazine shows cover this recurring phenomenon. There's more falling than just prices at Wally-World. Oh, I question if prices are falling, BTW!OK, I've heard of this one before and it's totally ridiculous. Are high shelves somehow exclusive to Wal-Mart? Ever been to a Home Depot, National, or Lowes? They have shelves so high they need special lifts to reach them. Hell, even Target and K-Mart have high shelves. I'd much rather be in a Wal-Mart than a Home Depot and have lumber and glass falling off shelves that are higher than Wal-Mart's...or in their outside area and have large bags of soil and fertilizer falling on my head. This is yet another example of Wal-Mart being singled out because they are the "the big guy".
