Its political vision is making money. Known in some circles as ChinaMart 
it does its part in keeping the American consumers relatively happy by 
offering inexpensive goods of uncertain quality. It's my local store of 
last resort if I can't find an item before I order it from Amazon. It 
tends to drive out local businesses and contributed to the demise of some 
chains like Sears, KMart, and ShopKo.

It is known for expecting the government to pick up the slack to keep its 
underpaid 'associates' alive with supplemental monies and medical care. 

My nephew could give a more detailed rant. He will sit in the car rather 
than going into a Walmart when family members go there.
