Default Re: Movie: Wal-Mart : The high cost of low prices

What about certain ethnic eateries and pizzerias that abound everywhere,that employ only certain countrymen and women[some on visitation,and some illegals id be certainly willing to bet since smiling and nodding is the extent of thier english skills], take away most locals business [who have to pay more overhead and taxes] ,dont provide proper healthcare,unemployment benefits,and who send all thier earnings back to thier country instead of spending it here[usually tax free of course]. Most buy food only from thier own country . They take local businesses ability to earn, and ddont buy food from the US in many cases,and dont spend thier money here,its normally sent back to thier country where a dollar goes much farther for them .And of course they dont need healthcare,Uncle Sam is nore than willing to provide that for them while they are visiting.Go to a large buffet[since they have the largest effect on local businesses] and see 150 people come in for lunch in an hour,and think to yourself that if this rstaurant wasnt here these 150 people would have to eat somewhere else locally and that would create 15 jobs for our kids wanting to cook,waitress or clean tables to get through school.
