When the first Walmart opened in 1962, Sam emphasized that his stores should reflect the values of the customers. He allowed local charities to hold bake sales on store property, and he offered scholarships to local high school students.

Sam Walton also was big into Wal-Mart selling AMERICAN-made products. It was supposed to be a store that benefited the community and this country, but since he died, a lot of that has gone down the tubes. I don't think he would approve of the Wal-Mart of today at all.

I see what you mean. He probably didn't mean to include the ladies of the evening working the parking lot did he?
