Guys, I have been on both sides of this argument. As a former National retailer (not in competition with walmart) we tracked them carefully to hitchhike on the traffic they generated. But we also paid good wages and did not whine about it.
However, as a citizen and as a consumer, some things have really made my life better, cell phone, computer/internet, Satellite communications, better vehicles, better healthcare and miracle drugs, better home insulation and heating systems, city water, Air conditioning, netflix on line, cable TV.
They did not come from Walmart, or Lowes, Or Staples. Cheaper socks, cheaper TV's, Bigger selection..yes.
I heard a politician brag about starting Staples and i chuckled. I am sure it was a major undertaking and they have been pretty successful, but i was able to buy paper and pens and paper clips...even staples...before they "revolutionized" office supplies retailing.
It is all about perspective. I have too much stuff already. Need to be cleaning out and tossing, instead of buying more. Wife says i should be doing that instead of posting on YTmag.
