I wouldn't necessarily say that only liberals hate Wal-Mart but I would agree that a lot of us are very concerned about their business practices... with good reason.

For one, Wal Mart is owned by the wealthiest family in the world consisting of 4 brothers and sisters each worth over 20 billion dollars, the Waltons.

Not saying wealth is bad but I am saying it is hard to contemplate how a family can gain so much profit while exploiting cheap labor, sweat shops in China and purposely using tactics to put small businesses in America out of business.

IE, Wal Mart was convicted of price gauging in the 90s and has been charged in 3 different countries with violating monopoly laws.

But, with all that said, the #1 thing that bothers me about Wal Mart is their little known evolvement in manipulating trade tariffs between us and China. They have so much power that they literally are dictating what the trade tariffs will or won't be.

I watched a teach Walmart once exhibiting the human beings who make their products...I forgot which u . s . a . they were in. besides, this woman might want to not often arise with the money for to make money to feed her relations. She became high quality with it till the information crew took her to us of a to confirm the save that bought the failings she made. even as she stumbled on out how a lot they bought the products for she became quite disillusioned. even as they requested a consumer if that that they had pay a quarter more effective in basic terms to substantiate this woman might want to provide her relations a good meal she suggested no. i could not believe it! i do not hate Walmart and that i'm not a liberal yet received't save there if i might want to help it. a number of their costs are almost 3 cents more cost-efficient than yet another save and that i will gladly visit the different save and pay the three cents more effective. If I do go there i purchase non-save type products.

Liberals do dislike Wal-Mart because, as a party that believes in a socialist philosophy, liberals believe the government should protect its people and small "mom and pop" businesses which Wal-Mart puts out of business with its lower prices. So they do not hate it but dislike it passionately. Liberals believe the government should protect these small stores by keeping out Wal-Mart, but since we live in a capitalist (for the most part) society Wal-Mart has the right to go in and do business, and should, where it wants.

No because they accept food stamps, welfare checks and sell beer and smokes. It is a liberal demographic DisneyLand. They trap people into crappy low paying jobs and provide them with just enough benefits to keep them there.

However as a republican capitalist I admire their business model of "We'll Crush You if you don't play nice with us." Very effective.

Wal Mart, where you can find 7 types of crap and buy them all for no apparent reason. Please visit us on Sweaty Fat Single Mom Spandex Monday's. Look for the sweat stains and get an additional 10% off.

Walmart endorses Hillary Clinton, so I guess not.

Of course not. Walmart is a socialist dream come true. It is the great equalizer. Cheap trash for all.

Yes because they refuse to cut their 3% profitability to give their employees a $40,000 base salary and free insurance. Evil isn't it.

I don't like Wal-Mart but it's not because I'm a Liberal.

No they do not, most of wal-marts products come from China, a communist country and Liberals love anything communist.
