Is Wal-Mart good for America?

Wal-Mart is known to be the best and largest retailer in the United States. It is known to be one of the cheapest and most successful of all. The question is, is Wal-Mart good for America? Obviously like all business there are advantages and disadvantages to Wal-Mart. Its advantages are that it provides a variety of things with the cheapest prices to their customers; it also has the latest technology and is up to date. Wal-Mart strategy is that it displays the cheapest item to grab the costumer’s attention but after trying to find better qualities of the same item you will soon notice that it is not the cheapest deal available. Also that Wal-Mart has a lot of power over the businesses that work with them because they have to follow the rules and regulations of Wal-Mart, therefore Wal-Mart have power over everything. The biggest disadvantage is that Wal-Mart leaves people in the manufacturing section without work because most of the goods are imported from China and that is very bad for the working class in The United States. Wal-Mart in 2004 was not very good for America because I think even though they have more advantages than disadvantages, that one big disadvantage is greater than all its advantages put together.
