Hey everyone, just want to share with you a piece of my not done yet work. Thank you in advance for your comments.

Although, I agree with Sebastian Mallaby that Wal-Mart should make sure it secures profit for its shareholders and that low income families benefit from the company’s low prices on food and first necessity goods, I support Karen Olsson’s point of view.People might still rush at Wal-Mart’s doors when they open a new store to look for a job, because they need to work; and so far this company is the one that is offering them one. Still, it is unacceptable to me that, in America, people get treated this way. America is the leader of democracy and there is a strong discrepancy between the values of the “promised land” and the Wal-Mart’s working conditions. How come that people are still working in an environment that can be described as slavery? Also let’s remind everyone that we are talking here about the world’s largest retailer with $220 billion in sales and the biggest private employer in America (Olsson, “Up Against Wal-Mart”). Wal-Mart’s employees themselves described their working conditions to Karen Olsson. “I was asked to work off the clock, sometimes by the store manager, sometimes by the assistant manager” says Liberty Morales Serna, a former employee in Houston just to explain how he was made to work without been paid for that time; a fact that goes against the labor law.
