Movie Review from "Walmart: The High Cost of Low Price”

We watched a video called “Walmart: The High Cost of Low Price”. I understand how Walmart works in the US. Walmart is the biggest company of the world; they have the highest revenue in the world. But it has become a big effect to the America. They sell cheap products inexpensive, and decrease cost price, but the quality itself goes down. But people rather to buy cheap products than go to the actual store with higher price and quality. So then, Walmart decrease the American marts competitive strength which make other small shops closed. That also cause people who used to work in their own shops have to be the employees in Walmart, but they get as tiny paid as the prices in Walmart.The massive mart has also destroyed the community. It holds a big area to build their parking lot. After the mart was built, the noises, pollution, crimes start appearing around the place.

Walmart using labors from the Third World, such as China, Honduras, and Indonesia. They paid those labors badly, but sell the products with high price to increase their profit. I kind of have sympathy for those labors. These cheap labors live in a humid, hot, small, crowded, messy dormitory.

This effect could explain as Takers and Leaver. Leavers are like those labors and communities which don’t want Walmart in. They loose their rights; work as surviving. But those Takers, which are the Walmart people, they gaining more than what they need; they are taking properties or rights from the leavers. I think Walmart is just the example of the effects. I believe, there tons of the marts are doing the same thing as Walmart around the world. This is unavoidable business moral. But sometimes we just have to take a step back either to accept or reject.
