But as for the evilness of Wal-mart, I just don´t get it. So they demand fast, cheap service from their suppliers, so what? Wal-mart´s customers demand the same from them. Nobody´s putting a gun to the suppliers´ or the customers´ heads.

I guarantee you suppliers wouldn´t be doing business with Wal-mart if they were losing money in the deal. Everyone is making money off of Wal-mart - the customers, the suppliers, and Wal-mart themselves. The only people who aren´t are the obsolete businesses who can´t keep up. Henry Ford put the horse-buggy makers out of business. Cry me a river. It´s not the end of the world. It´s technology.

If so many people detested Wal-mart then these small Mom and Pop shops would stay in business. In fact, they would thrive. Walmart doesn´t have the best shopping atmosphere, but they make up for it with dirt cheap prices, and that´s what most people want more.
