PBS showed Hedrick Smith's "Is Wal-Mart Good for America?" on Frontline last night. The whole Wal-Mart thing is eerily similar to the Bush Administration's America. Wal-Mart convinces its low wage employees and its shoppers that Wal-Mart is good for them. Meanwhile, they are responsible for shutting down American manufacturers. Responsible for sending American jobs to China.
So Americans lose their jobs, communities lose their factories and their tax base, and Wal-Mart makes gobs of money for a very few people. And dumb Americans continue shop there.
