Walmart sweatshops cranking out ornaments

I did know about walmart, I have people on myspace that is totally against walmart because of their practices and taking jobs away from Americans.
It is getting to where I never know where to shop anymore, who to support and who not to support..:(

yes it does and for some reason, this doesnt suprise me. walmart is like any other company that is after a quick buck so i would rather shop at the mom and pop shops than the big box shops.

I didn't see any proof in the video that it was a walmart sweatshop. That could of been for any store or that sweatshop could be making ornaments for various stores like Kmart, Target as well as Walmart. I'll still shop there.

This won't just effect my Wal-Mart shopping.I read the lables on just about anything anymore.You know the little part where it says "made in".....if it doesn't say made in USA.....I try not to buy it.By not buying things which are made any place other than right here in the U.S.......is the only way we the consumers can have any effect on where the products are made.The only reason they are having things made somewhere other than here....is profit.The cost to make the item may have been only a few pennies.....but the resale value is a 300% or more mark up....that's money in their pocket and very little of that is even going back to the people they have working fo them right here in the U.S......unless you are one of the big guys in upper management.....than of course you wallet is getting fat in the proccess.

Everytime someone tells me they shop at walmart, I cringe a little. Not only are the walmarts I've been to messy, rude employees, and just awful, I know all about the product coming from China and also I had friends who worked there and were involved in the lawsuits about being paid less than men. So overall walmart= crap to me. I never shop there already, and this just backs up my reasons.

This is outrageous. No wonder nothing lasts that we buy from Walmart! I think Walmart knows exactly what they are buying and how much money they are saving to pass along to us the consumer. We think we are getting a steal and it is the poor factory workers that get gypped.

I do shop more at Ingles for groceries now, than at Walmart. I still do shop at Walmart, but not as much as before.

it's all up to us, the buyers.

most of us prefer lower prices, not quality - manufacturers/ marketers can only afford to provide lower priced goods - IF and WHEN they can produce/ get at a low price - which means cheap material, cheap labor, cheap process cost!!

even in a 'developing country' like ours, the labor cost is rising, and 'deemed as' expensive - compared to China!! - WE are also losing our jobs because most factories are thinking of moving to China - because of their cheap and big supply of labor. and now - the country is flooded with goods from China.

i dun think it can be helped... as long as we demand lower priced goods, and as long as people are needed to produce things - the cheaper the labor the better -
