From: akudiya-AT-pseud.pseud Subject: M-INTRO: Exploitation for low prices (and the death of Walmart) Date: Tue, 30 Nov 2004 00:10:02 -0500 Wal-mart is emblematic of what the world is becoming. Homogenized. Sure the sales from the day after Thanksgiving sales may have been down, but I honestly think that most people are getting their stuff from other places since the higher priced stores are now selling at the prices that many people like. There is no revolution taking place at this point in time, because I don’t think their sales in general are going down. Lack of selection is due to the fact that these big box stores cannot truly specialize in a particular area. These big box scores, especially wal-mart, have killed little businesses and will continue to do so. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . --- from list marxism-intro-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
