Especially seeing how Wal-mart practically destroyed the mom and pop shops competitions that would have otherwise employed people with full time work at a decent wage.
Right. Those mom-and-pop shops paid even less than WalMart. My aunt worked for a mom-and-pop dimestore for ten years. She never made more than minimum wage. No sick days. No vacations. No insurance. No raises. No nothing. Then WalMart came to town. Those greedy little mom-and-pop stores went out of business; and she finally got a job that had benefits.
