HOW BIG IS WAL-MART?.


Your rant is misleading to the average forum idiot ( like para and Stonkin and so on ) that takes what they read as gospel.


You failed to mention that WAL-MART has stores in more countries than some of those others and this helps add to its over all GDP footprint.


Their shareholder website states :

We operate more than 3,800 facilities in the United States and more than 2,600 more in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Japan, Mexico, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, South Korea and the United Kingdom.


Anyway ... I was unsure if you were just making a blank statement or if you were another one of the anti Wal-Mart crowd.

And if you had noticed, it was a c/p.

My context is hella better than that....and you know it.

I failed to mention those facts out of sheer laziness; I was merely pointing out what somebody else wrote.....smart ass.
