I think it's amazing the things Wal-Mart is able to come up with. Sure, they make craploads of money. Sure, they may even run mom and pop businesses under. But that's the business cycle. If there weren't powerhouses like Wal-Mart, you'd all be bitching about how your last set of plastic cups cost you $50. It's competition, folks. If you don't like pan and scan movies, don't bitch about Wal-Mart. Wal-MArt doesn't make the movies or the DVD's. Bitch at the studios. If the studios didn't sell them, neither would Wal-Mart.
Were it not for corporations like Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Circuit City, Kroger, etc. the cost of goods would be ridiculous, and even more jobs would move out of the country to compensate for the rapidly climbing cost of living. You can't have it both ways. Either accept that stuff is expensive, or stop being a consumer. But don't bitch about the messenger because you don't understand the message.
