Why Wal-Mart is good

I'm throwing together a bullshit presentation on the good of walmart. So far my points are:

Utilitarianism- greatest good for greatest number. meaning that if more people benefit than suffer its good.

free market- wal-mart is better than your store- you lose.

and something about wal-mart giving back or something

I know a lot of people hate wal-mart, but i've got to give a persuasive speech on a controversial topic and this is all i've come up with. let me know if you've got any good points to add to this, or what some of the arguements against walmart being bad are or something. i could use some help with this since its exam time and i'm mentally exhausted.

also, if you happen to have any ideas for some kind of visual- video/picture whatever. let me know.

cause working 45 hours a week and not getting paid enough to survive or having time to enjoy yourself is awesome. No, we do not have an extremely high quality of life in this country for the majority of people. Only the wealthy minority have extremely high qualities of life. Yes capitalism is good but without regulation, alot of people end up getting fucked over.

How hard did you work in high school?

Do you work hard at your job, or just do the minimum? Are you active in trying to find a profession where you can excel?

I have no sympathies for the lazy.

It's funny, ecause I too am in college but get paid a minimum of $12 an hour at all my jobs. Maybe you should try getting a job that doesn't suck. The G.I. Bill pays for tuition, leaving me only having to work part time. Sorry you suck at making things happen.

Watch Food Inc. It talks about how Wal-Mart is beginning to push organic and non-GMO foods.
