Wal-mart, and other companies that are like Wal-mart, disgusts me. I feel like I have seen this documentary before in my high school economy class. Even if I had or not, this flim left me feeling angry about everything that Wal-mart has been doing to American nationwide.
In Wal-mart's defense, the documentary did little to none to show their side on this issue, though I doubt that even if there was one put into the film it would not help. The clear contrast between the Wal-mart commercial vs the interviews with their employees is just incredible. I cannot believe how poorly cared for the employees are at Wal-mart (or any other big box company). When thinking about this, I could not help but think about my fall break. Yesterday, I went to Walgreen with my dad to get our flu shots and my dad's company gave him (and other employees) a letter that made his shot free. Wal-mart is a very rich and successful company. Why can't they give their employees the proper health care (and what ever else they have been keeping from their workers) and stop being selfish by making the government support them.
I can't remember where this blog was suppose to go with the Wal-mart documentary, so I will leave this youtube video for your enjoyment.
