Wal-Mart probably helps small businesses, since it employs a lot of people and pays a lot of wages. Small business which offer something these people want, and offer good service, likely prosper. [/B]
If they tore down 110 stores more jobs would be lost than gained by building a Walmart. If you have read the paper or watched the news in the past few years Wal-mart has had trouble with paying people wages and making people clock out but still work. But hey you get some items for cheap and the Waltons donate to your party, how nice for you.
