		<description>And?
&lt;span class=&quot;mt-export2wp&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Isnt this the beauty of capitalism?
First, I dont know of any Wal-Mart that raises their prices once the competition is gone, and frankly, the small businesses should think of a clever way to keep their business, rather than continue to overcharge their customers, and expect everyone to continue to give them business.
&lt;span class=&quot;mt-export2wp&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Second, I dont/wont buy music from Wal-Mart for the simple fact that they do censor (you never know what exactly you&#039;re going to get).
But be thankful that the same capitalism that allows them to get rock bottom prices for everyone, is the same system that allows you to boycott them.
&lt;span class=&quot;mt-export2wp&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Personally, I will continue to give them my business because smaller and other businesses refuse to do business like they do.
(eg. small shops wont special order items for me, Wal-Mart will; small shops charge 20-50% more for items, whereas Wal-Mart gets better prices.)
&lt;span class=&quot;mt-export2wp&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
My main gripe with Wal-Mart is all of the psuedo-humans that stroll its aisles. What a weird consortium of the gene pools oddities, LOL...

		<description>Bennie, sadly enough that&#039;s how most people feel. Everyone knows how bad walmart is. They lower their prices to drive out competitors then raise them once there&#039;s no one left. They treat their employees like garbage. They even censor magazines, newspapers and cd&#039;s that they sell. But hey, if it will save me a buck....

		<description>I hate Walmart too, but my desire to save outweighs my hatred.
