Re: For the Wal Mart Shoppers

Vegas,

The sad irony of this is ...is nat Wal-Mart who created this &quot;Made in China&quot; phenomenon. The <span style="font-style: italic">Made in China </span>label you see today is due to the large manufacturing industry offshoring to China to mek products cheapa. So where on earth Walmart and thousands of other companies a goh get dem goods fram if nat fram China \o/

Wi deh pan wi computa now wey have in micro chips wey Intel and odda firms tink it was betta fi mek ova dey fi cheap. So a guess wi fi boycott all computa wid Intel chips indeh

Look mi naah fight a person fi noh waan shop at a certain place.. Is like me who refuse to buy fram Toyota based on my experience wid dem in di early 90s. We all can mek dat individual decision. BUT at di same token some a wi a rail and a knock Walmart fi capitalizing on a basic business concept of making the most profits by under pricing the competition.

When we fly we look for the cheapest airline ticket wi can get an noh buy expensive fare fram AA when STH West cheapa .. a soh di human pychy work when yuh a try save a buck. Simple as dat.

Not quite.. We rail against Walmart because it is the largest store globally and their business practices whilst they create short term lower prices in the long term do more harm than good.

The profit does not bother me but it is how they treat their workers (pay &amp; benefits) &amp; stifle their suppliers until the suppliers no longer make a profit (I am sure the case of the pickles sold at Walmart was discussed in grad school), forcing the suppliers either out of business or to move their businesses out of the communities which they serve.

Not that simple because people do not purchase based on price points alone. If the shopping experience is more positive to the consumer (eg customer service,cleaner bright lit stores, ease of finding items, etc) consumers will pay a higher price for the same products. This is proven with BJs and CostCo.
