Conclusion
Many people choose to ignore the truth behind Walmart and go about there business. They enjoy the nice things Walmart has to offer such as free samples, discount prices on regular basis, and of course the bulk items that cost less. Who wouldn't want any of that? But understanding the reasons of why things are the way they are in Walmart is of the importance. Nothing is free in life. Taxes and everything else is here to tell us that. We must come together and conform about the existence of Walmart. It is an extremely corrupt being, in which, things may seem nice from the consumer standpoint but in turn is a nasty ride all the way back to where they receive their products from. Walmart is in fact the best choice on the block for a bargain. Over 60% of superstore sales in the U.S. Come from Walmart. The next leading competitor of sales is Costco and Walmart has over 300 million dollars worth of sales then them, 1.6 million more employees, and over 200 more of a market cap then them.
