Wal-Mart on US Manufacturing

How much do you think Wal-Mart in general has changed American Manufacturing if at all?



Negative or positive? I would like to hear some stories.

Has had a major effect on American manufacturing. (what's left of it.)

Mostly negative. The good news is I think their growth is gone.

I wish there were more stores like Costco in San Diego.

No. It was a rhetorical question in a report. But seeing that say a canning factory is considered manufacturing they have a point. If you put cola into a bottle at a bottling plant you are a manufacturer. If you put cola into a cup at a restaurant you are considered service.

The point of the question was where exactly do you draw the lines. It affects economic and tax policy.
