Walmart: the High Cost of Low Price

DVD by filmmaker Robert Greenwald
Hennepin County Library 98 minutes
genre: documentary

I've never been a Walmart / Sam's Club fan, but this movie really bothered me. I know so many people who love Walmart (because of the inexpensive items sold there) and just can't see why others (like me) think it's a "bad" choice for shopping. Free market is part of capitalism in America, but I see Walmart in a very negative light. I almost want to buy a copy of this DVD, especially for my friends in Chanhassen who are dreading the thought of a Walmart being located there. Well-done documentary. I'm so sad for the small town business people who were run out of business by the evil empire.
