Lets say a single Mom used to work at a local department store. They paid her around 9 dollars an hour. Well Walmart moved in, and now she is paid minimum wage. Is that cool?

Now, I am not talking about in cities or even large towns. I am talking those towns that the only thing left is a walmart. I know you have visited or driven thru these places before.
Maybe I'm wrong and this is just a midwest issue? I dunno? I just think it sucks
Yeah but now she can go to walmart and buy things at cheapers prices, so in a round about way she is making the same amount of money, right?
