To change Wal-Mart, first change America – The company is thriving within the rules set by the US economy and with the direct support of the US consumer base. If Americans really think WalMart is evil, they must act to make change. The article says that there is an easy way to make WalMart change, or to run them out of business — don’t shop there. Easier than complaining, and far more effective. Of course, the same is true of the RIAA, and yet people still continue to buy, buy, buy music. Don’t expect to see a change any time soon, not in America. If any change comes, it will be an ill-conceived legislative “solution.” As a country so wed to the markets and the promise of consumerism, and so happy to take advantage of the low prices around us, even when we know the costs, we sure have a strange way of reacting when faced with the problems we’ve caused. But then, blaming everyone else for your problems isn’t really new. I can at least be contented that I’m doing some very small part to not be a hypocrite by simply choosing to never shop at WalMart. Is that really so hard?
